I Wasted A Nickel Last Night chords by Hawkshaw Hawkins

G
I put a nickel in the telephone

C
To find out dear if you'd be home

D7                     G
I wasted a nickel last night



I guess I've wished a million times

C
It hadn't been a party line

D7                     G
I wasted a nickel last night


  C
I heard you tell a friend of mine

G
That I was not the one

A7
Why did you play me for a fool

D7
So you could have your fun


G
If I had known it from the start

C
It might have saved a broken heart

D7                       G
The nickel I wasted last night



I lost a nickel but I lost much more

C
It seems I hear it o'er and o'er

D7                     G
I wasted a nickel last night



My castles have all fallen down

C
I saw them tumble to the ground

D7                           G
A nickel changed it all last night


    C
But someday when your world gets lonely

G
And your friends are few

A7
The door of love is open dear

D7
I'm waiting here for you


G
A nickel has it's story told

C
Of love not worth its weight in gold

D7                     G
I wasted a nickel last night
