[Intro]
C Fdim7C/GF/GG7
| | | | |
[Verse]
C Fdim7 F/Bb G/Ab
Well baby, there you stand
C/G F/G G7
With your little head, down in your hand
F C/E
Oh, my God, you can't believe
Dm7 C/E
It's happening again
F C/E
Your baby's gone and you're all alone
Dm7 F/G G
And it looks like the end
[Verse]
C Fdim7 F/Bb G/Ab
And you're back out on the street
C/G F/G G7
And you're trying to remember
F C/E
How do you start it over?
Dm7 C/E
You don't know if you can
F C/E
You don't care much for a stranger's touch
Dm7 F/G G
But you can't hold your man
[Chorus]
Am7 E7
You never thought you'd be alone
G D
This far down the line
F Em Em
And I know what's been on your mind
Dm F/G G C
You're afraid it's all been wasted time
Bm7 E Am7
The autumn leaves have got you thinking
Bm7 E Am7 Am7/Bb
About the first time that you fell
Bm7 E Am G
You didn't love the boy too much, no, no
F C/E Ddim7 F/G G
You just loved the boy too well, farewell
[Verse]
C Fdim7 F/Bb G/Ab
So you live from day to day,
C/G F/G G7
and you dream about tomorrow, oh
F C/E
And the hours go by like minutes
Dm7 C/E
And the shadows come to stay
F C/E
So you take a little something
Dm7 F/G G
To make them go away
[Chorus]
Am7 E
And I could have done so many things, baby
G D
If I could only stop my mind
F Em
from wondering what I left behind
Dm F/G G C
and from worrying about this wasted time
[Bridge]
Ab C
Ooh, another love has come and gone
Ab C
Ooh, and the years keep rushing on
F C/E
I remember what you told me
Dm C/E
Before you went out on your own
F C/E
"Sometimes to keep it together
Dm F/G G
You got to leave it alone"
[Chorus]
Am E
So you can get on with your search, baby
G D
And I can get on with mine
F Em
And maybe someday we will find
Dm F/G G C C/G C/A C/B
That it wasn't really wasted time
[Outro]
