It was time well wasted and there's
No way I'd trade a few more 
Things that I coulda crossed off my list
For a day that I'll never forget
I know I didnt get a thing done
But I sure soaked up every minute 
Of the memory we were making
And I count it all as time well wasted
(bridge)
BmThis world Aspins too fast Gif you let D/F#it
EmThere's always Aone more thing to Ddo
BmLooking back I nAever have GregreteD/F#d

And lovGing away a Sunday afterAnoon
