[Verse 1]

Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7/E

How do you know if you’ve done everything right?

Dm7

Is it the love you have at hand

G7

Or the cash you kiss at night?

Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7/E

How do you know if it was worth it in the end?

Dm7

Did every second really count?

G7

Or were there some you should’ve spent

Am F

On anything but anyone you love?

Am F

Was this the life that you were dreaming of?

F/E Dm7

A movie night, a yellow light

G7 F G7

You’re slowin’ down and days are adding up

[Chorus]

C F F/E

So don’t waste the time you have

G/B C C/B

Waiting for time to pass

Am Dm

It’s only a lifetime, that’s only a while

G7 C

It’s not worth the anger you felt as a child

C F F/E

Don’t waste the time you have

G/B C C/B

Waiting for time to pass

Am Dm

It’s only a lifetime, that’s not long enough

G7 C C/B Am Dm7 G7

You’re not gonna like it without any love so don’t waste it

[Verse 2]

Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7/E

I’m unimpressed by the people preachin’ pain

Dm7

In the sake of some small game

G7

In the sake of someone’s name

Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7/E

I’m unprepared for my loved ones to be gone

Dm7

I call ‘em way too often now

G7

Worry way too much about Mom

[Chorus]

C F F/E

So don’t waste the time you have

G/B C C/B

Waiting for time to pass

Am Dm

It’s only a lifetime, that’s only a while

G7 C

It’s not worth the anger you felt as a child

C F F/E

Don’t waste the time you have

G/B C C/B

Waiting for time to pass

Am Dm

It’s only a lifetime, that’s not long enough

G7 C C/B

You’re not gonna like it without any love so don’t waste it

[Interlude]

Am Dm7 G7 C G/B Am Dm7 G7

[Bridge]

Am G/B F

It’s family and friends and that’s the truth

Am G/B F F/E

The fountain doesn’t give you back your youth

Dm7 G7

You’re stayin’ up too late at night and laughin’ under kitchen lights

Am G7

So hard, you start to cry

[Chorus]

C F F/E

Don’t waste the time you have

G/B C C/B

Waiting for time to pass

Am Dm

It’s only a lifetime, that’s not long enough

G7 C C/B Am

You’re not gonna like it without any love so don’t waste it
