Verse 1:
        E5            A5 
For the life of me I can't believe 
      E5
That you're on your knees beggin please
        E5                 A5 
All the pushing away and puttin down
          F#5                    B5
Can't you see you're gettin the run around

Verse 2:
Oh it's plain to see you'd rescue me
From my loneliness, so called unhappiness
Oh I didn't mean to cause you pain
I've got nothing to lose and nothing to gain

Chorus:
                 A5          B5
Don't waste your heart on a wild thing
            E5                    A5   
She's got a soul that was set on one thing
        E5          A5             E5       A5 
Oh this bird can't sing when you tie its wings
                 F#5   B5  E5  ( C#5 , 2nd time)
Don't waste your heart on me

C#5               F#5 
Its funny how the girls get burned
C#5                 F#5        A5
But honey as far as I'm concerned
                B5
The tables have turned

Chorus

                E5      A5                  E5      A5

Don't waste your heart on me
