G#
Standing at the back door,
she tried to make it fast.
Fm
One tear hit the hardwood,
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.

For one split second
She almost turned around
But that would be like pouring raindrops
Back into a cloud
So she took another step
And said, "I see the way out and I'm gonna take it".

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

Another glass of whiskey,
but it still don't kill the pain
So he stumbles to the sink and
pours it down the drain
He said, "It's time to be a man
and stop living for yesterday
Gotta face it"

Chorus:
'Cause I don't wanna spend my life jaded
Waitin' to wake up one day and find
That I let all these years go by
Wasted
Oh, I don't wanna keep on wishin', missin'
The still of the morning, the color of the night
I ain't spendin' no more time
Wasted

 G#        C#                     G# 
She kept driving along, till the moon and the sun,
 A#m
were floating side by side.
 G#  C#                            G# 
He  looked in the mirror, and his eyes were clear,
 F#                 Fm                G#
for the first time, in a while. Yeah-yeah

Chorus:
Oh, I don't wanna spend my life jaded
Waitin' to wake up one day and find
That I let all these years go by
Wasted
Oh, I don't wanna keep on wishin', missin'
The still of the morning, the color of the night
I ain't spendin' no more time
Wasted
Oh, I don't wanna spend my life jaded
Waitin' to wake up one day and find
That I let all these years go by
Wasted
Yeah, yeah
Oh, I don't wanna keep on wishin', missin'
The still of the morning, the color of the night
I ain't spendin' no more time
Wasted
