I'm wasting time
     A
thinking about a girl
C#m
And stealing her
  B
away from her world
E                B
She and I would run
    C#m
away   I think of all the
  B
things that I'd say

We'd talk about

And even if I got the balls
You know that the Cougar would never make it
And in my town you can't drive naked

Maybe I'd impress her by being in a band and
Maybe if I act real tough,
she'd let me hold her hand and
Maybe I'll win her heart by
writing this song about her
Sometimes I sit at home and

Chorus

Am I just wasting my time
   B
Am I just wasting my
E   A C#m
time  Wasting my time
B                 A E
thinking about a girl
