|G    |G    |Em   |Em   |C    |D    |

[Verse 1]
G
Standing at the back door, she tried to make it fast.
Em
One tear hit the hardwood, it fell like broken glass.
             C                               D
She said sometimes love slips away, 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                         D                        G
So she took another step, said I see the way out and I'm gonna take it.

[Chorus]
G
I don't wanna spend my life jaded, waiting,
   Em
To wake up one day and find,
          C                      D    G
That I've let all these years go by, wasted.

[Verse 2]
 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.

[Chorus]
       G
'Cause I don't wanna spend my life jaded, waiting,
   Em
To wake up one day and find,
          C                      D    G
That I've let all these years go by, wasted.
       G
Oh-oh, I don't wanna keep on wishing, missing,
    Em
The still of the morning, the color of the night
        C                 D     G        Am
I ain't spending no more time, wasted.

[Bridge]
G/B      C                    G/B
She kept driving along, till the moon and the sun,
 Am                    Am
were floating side by side.
G/B C                            G/B
He  looked in the mirror, and his eyes were clear,
 F                  Em             G       
for the first time, in a while. Yeah-yeah

[Chorus]
       G
Oh-oh, I don't wanna spend my life jaded, waiting,
   Em
To wake up one day and find,
          C                       D   G
That I've let all these years go by, wasted.
       G
Oh-oh, I don't wanna keep on wishing, missing,
    Em
The still of the morning, the color of the night
        C                 D     G       G    Em
I ain't spending no more time, wasted.
