Wasted Years by Maroon 5
Transcribed by Bumpy

I was frustrated when I found no chords for Wasted Years. I heard it on Maroon 5's Live
the 13th album and wanted to play it myself. You can't really be sure for the notes
the song has an awkward overall key, but I tried to make it accurate and interesting to 
and hear, especially acoustically.
That being said: this is my first contribution. ever.


Verse:

AmSlow (x02210@1)is the memory
                     CI (x32010@1)can picture her standing right in front of me

                    Dm (xx0231@1)                      GAnd (320003@1)I had already gotten there before I came
     Em (022000@1)     AmMy (x02210@1)tank is empty

Am (x02210@1)                   CI'm (x32010@1)sick of all these wasted years
