                Don't Waste My Time
                (Rossi/Young)


                      D                                    A
                You spend my money, you drink my best red wine

                      D                                 E
                You think it's funny to see me all the time

                 D
                Sittin' with my head hanging down

                  A                    C#m
                Treat me just like a clown
                              H                  E
                You spend my money, but come on honey

                                A
                Don't waste my time


                D                                             A
                When you get older, you'll see what you have done

                     D                                         E
                You hang on my shoulder and loved me just for fun

                 D
                Someday when I'm older, too

                           A                          C#m
                I'm gonna come and make a fool out of you
                              H                E
                You spend my money, you know honey
