Wasting Time

A            Bm7         A

[Verse]
    A            D
I'm sitting here flipping through
Bm              E            A  
Excuses for why I shouldn't call
       D        Bm       F#m   E
 you
      A             D
Every muscle, every fibre,
      Bm          E            A 
Every hair object to the very 
          D
idea
Bm                F#m     E
     I just can't put my finger on
A       D              Bm       
However hard I try to slap away 
     E     A        D        Bm 
the halo around you
      F#m   E

         A             D
Still it lingers and abruptly
        Bm             E      
Without warning bitter memories 
   A         D        Bm       
appear
F#m   E


[Pre-chorus]
D                      E
When I think on it for long enough
   D                         E
Of all the time we wasted on each 
other's love
         F#m         A            
It's a wonder that I still believe
     Bm            D  E
 the sun is coming up tomorrow
Bm                Bm        A   
         What was once so fine, 
                    E
has been broken and burned

         So I wait here in the 
                       E
dark, for the light to return

[Chorus]
F#m            D                  
Blinded, I was blinded 'til I knew
 A                     E
 only the good love survives
F#m             D               
Blinded, 'til I understood that 
A                     D
only the good love survives
A                     D
Only the good love survives
    E            D       A       
But we were only wasting time
    D        Bm        E

A        D        Bm       F#m   E

[Verse 2]
A                  D
All those wringing hands
          Bm             E        
And cheap ideas we could reason as
    A        D        Bm       
 failures
F#m   E

       A               D
But to run it through again
           Bm          E         
Would only serve to do nobody no 
A        D        Bm
good
   F#m     E
So let the universe decide
A          D              Bm    
How we can loosen all the knots 
    E               A        D   
and tangled ways we came to
     Bm       F#m   E

    A          D                 
And resolve to never speak of it 
Bm
again
   E               A        D    
Oh love if only we could
    Bm       F#m   E


[Pre-Chorus]
D                      E
When I think on it for long enough
   D                         E
Of all the time we wasted on each 
other's love
         F#m         A            
It's a wonder that I still believe
     Bm            D  E
 the sun is coming up tomorrow
Bm                Bm        A   
         What was once so fine, 
                    E
has been broken and burned
Bm            Bm               A
         So I wait here in the 
                       E
dark, for the light to return

[Chorus]
F#m            D                  
Blinded, I was blinded 'til I knew
 A                     E
 only the good love survives
F#m             D               
Blinded, 'til I understood that 
A                     D
only the good love survives
A                     D
Only the good love survives
    E            D       A       
But we were only wasting time

A       Bm7          A        
We were only wasting time
