INTRO: D  D9  D  D9  D4 D4 (2x) 
(Pause) 
       D  D9  D  D9  D4 D4 (2x) 
 
      D       D9        D          D9           INTRO 
That '73 Montecarlo had a carload of Schlitz and innocence 
D              D9             D       D9              INTRO 
Half a pack of Daddy's cigarettes and a cassette of Jimmy Hendrix 
     G                                  G/B 
We parked beside the railroad tracks, kicked back and wondered what life would be like 
        D             D9  D  D9  D4 D4 
If we were presidents 
          G         G/B         A     N/C/       D 
And let another day fade away wastin' time well spent 

CHORUS: 
   G                                  
A million miles of dirt road dust, learnin' love and lovin' lust 
  D                                                          D9 
Tastin' life as it came to us on a dead end road that had no end 
G                                
Wishin' we could make time fly, not knowin' it was flyin' by 
D                                             A 
While we were makin' plans that didn't make sense 
         D            D9           G           D 
Wastin' time, wastin' time, wastin' time well spent 

INTRO 
 

D                 D9     D            D9          INTRO 
She matched my Tuxedo to a "T" in those pictures on my floor 
     D             D9               D                        D9      
And as I stared at me I could finally see what she saw when she said she coudln't 
 D            INTRO 
See me anymore 
      G                                  G/B 
I'll never forget the night we parked on prom night right on the side of a road 
D               D9  D  D9  D4 D4 
We'd never been 
         G          G/B           A           D 
And let another day fade away wastin' time well spent 

CHORUS 

SOLO 
Bm 
Bittersweet what might have been 
A 
Comes to mind now and then 
G 
Makes me wanna go back again 
D                D                    G                 D 
Waste some time, waste some time, waste some time well spent
