Capo on 1st fret
               
 
 
Intro: G G/B C D 
 
   G 
Standing at the back door  
 
She tried to make it fast  
Em 
One tear hit the hard wood  
 
It fell like broken glass  
             C 
She said sometimes love slips away  
          D 
And you just can't get it back  
       G 
Let's face it  
 
 
     G 
For one split second  
 
She almost turned around  
               Em 
But that would be like pouring rain drops 
 
Back into a cloud  
        C 
So she took another step and said  
   D                        G 
I see the way out and I'm gonna' take it  
 
G 
I don't wanna' spend my life jaded  
            Em 
Waiting to wake up one day and find  
        C                     D 
That I let all these years go by  
  G 
Wasted  
 
   G 
Another glass of whiskey but it still don't kill the pain  
        Em 
So he stumbles to the sink and pours it down the drain  
              C                           D 
He said it's time to be a man and stop living for yesterday  
       G 
Gotta Face it.  
 
       G  
Cause' I don't wanna' spend my life jaded  
            Em 
Waiting to wake up one day and find  
        C                     D 
That I let all these years go by 
  G 
Wasted  
   G 
Oh I don't wanna' keep on wishing, missing  
     Em 
The still of the morning the color of the night  
           C               D 
I ain't spending no more time  
  G    Am 
Wasted     
 
G/B         C 
She kept drivin' along  
G/B                        Am 
Till the moon and the sun were floating side-by-side  
     C                          G/B 
He looked in the mirror and his eyes were clear  
 F                 Em 
For the first time in a while  
      G 
Hey, yeah,
    
    G 
Oh, I don't wanna' spend my life jaded  
            Em 
Waiting to wake up one day and find  
        C                     D 
That I let all these years go by  
  G 
Wasted  
   G 
Oh I don't wanna' keep on wishing, missing  
     Em 
The still of the morning the color of the night  
           C               D 
I ain't spending no more time  
  G 
Wasted  
    G 
Oh, I don't wanna' spend my life jaded  
            Em 
Waiting to wake up one day and find  
        C                     D 
That I let all these years go by  
  G 
Wasted  
 
Yeah, yeah  
   G 
Oh I don't wanna' keep on wishing, missing  
     Em 
The still of the morning the color of the night  
           C               D 
I ain't spending no more time  
  G 
Wasted
