Wasted Time

C                    Fm6    
Well baby, there you stand    
C/G                                 F/G    
With your little head, down in your hand    
F               C/E                Dm        C/E    
Oh, my God, you can't believe it's happening again    
F                            C/E            
Your baby's gone, and you're all alone    
       Dm             G7    
And it looks like the end.    
C                          Fm6    
And you're back out on the street,    
C/E                  F/G    G7    
And you're tryin' to remenber.    
F                     C/E    
How will you start it over?    
   Dm                 C/E    
You don't know if you can    
    F                      C/E    
You don't care much for a strange's touch,    
        Dm              G7    
But you can't hold your man.    
Am                      E7/G#    
You never thought you'd be alone    
G                 D7/F#    
This far down the line    
F                              Em    
And I know what's been on your mind    
       Dm                   G7     C    
You're afraid it's all been wasted time.    
Bm7        E                   Am    
The autumn leaves have got you thinking    
Bm7       E                   Am    
About the first time that you fell  
Bm7         E           Am       C/G    
You didn't love the boy too much, no, no    
         F     Em         Dm    G7    
You just loved the boy to well, Farewell.    
C                       Fm6    
So you live from day to day,    
C/G                   F/G      G7    
And you dream about tomorrow, oh,    
        F                C/E    
And the hours go by like minutes    
        Dm              C/E    
And the shadows come to stay    
       F                 C/E    
So you take a little something to    
Dm            G7    
make them go away.    
Am                       E7/G#    
And I could have done so many things, baby    
G                    D7/F#    
If I could only stop my mind    
F                           Em    
From wondrin' what I left behind    
         Dm                   G7     C    
And from worrying 'bout this wasted time.    
Ab                             C    
Ooh, another love has come and gone    
Ab                              C    C  Dm  C/E    
Ooh, and the years keep rushing on    
    F               C/E    
I remember what you told     
     Dm                        C/E    
me before you went out on your own:    
              F            C/E    
"Sometimes to keep it together,    
          Dm        G7    
We got to leave it alone."    
   Am                       E7/G#    
So you can get on with your search, baby,    
    G                 D7/F#    
And I can get on with mine    
    F                     Em    
And maybe someday we will find, that it    
Dm             G7    C    
Wasn't really wasted time.    
Ab     Bb  C    
Oh ooooh,    
Ab     Bb  C    
Oh ooooh,    
Ab     Bb  C    
Oh ooooh.
