NOTE: I'm not 100% sure about this, but it sounds close.   Comments/corrections welcome.
Also, due to space restrictions, I couldn't align it so that the rhyme scheme fits every
line.   Thus, follow the chords, not the lines (sorry).


INTRO: D  Dsus2  D  Dsus2  Dsus4-Dsus4 (2x)

(Pause)

       D  Dsus2  D  Dsus2  Dsus4-Dsus4 (2x)


      D       Dsus2        D          Dsus2           INTRO
That '73 Montecarlo had a carload of Schlitz and innocence
D              Dsus2             D       Dsus2              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             Dsus2  D  Dsus2  Dsus4-Dsus4
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                                                          Dsus2
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            Dsus2           G           D
Wastin' time, wastin' time, wastin' time well spent


INTRO

D                 Dsus2     D            Dsus2          INTRO
She matched my Tuxedo to a "T" in those pictures on my floor
     D             Dsus2               D                        Dsus2     
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               Dsus2  D  Dsus2  Dsus4-Dsus4
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
