C
I could have walked around the
F
world a couple
C
times
C
I could have swam across the
F
ocean and back
C
again
Am
Made a wish on every star that
G
Galileo drew
F                     G
For all the time I've wasted on
C
you
C
I could have drowned a million
F
beers
C
in Mexico
C
Counted every pieve of gravel on
F
a long country
C
road
Am
Sailed that slow boat to China
G
right up to the moon
F                     G
For all the time I've wasted on
C
you

[Chorus]
Am
Time goes by and when it's gone
Am                 F
it's gone and you realize
Am
Time just lies and you did not
move on
Am           F               G
No, you just cried, you just cried

[Verse 2]
C
I could have filled the
F
Missipppi River with my
C
tears
Am                                    G
I could have dug out the Grand Canyon with a spoon
F                     G
For all the time I've wasted on
C
you

[Chorus]
Am
Time goes by and when it's gone
Am                F
it's gone and you realize
Am
Time just flies and you did not
move on
             F               G
No, you just cried, you just cried

[Instrumental]
C F Am G F C

[Outro]
C
For everything I've lost
F
I'm not mad at
C
love
C
I'd even give it one more day if
F
I thought it would be
C
enough
Am
I could have served five life
                G
sentences for a crime I didn't do

F                G           C
For all the time I wasted on you
F                G              C
For all the time I've wasted on you
