A G F#m A
πΈ Verse:
A
My first mistake was saving face
G
I turned my cheek the other way
F#m A
More dirt on my name than my boots
A
My patience ain't colliding with pen
G
It's wearing thin and once again
F#m A
Won't be long till I blow my fuse
A G
They say that I was born to lose
D A
But if I'm telling the truth
πΈ Chorus:
A G
I'm wasting my ti-i-i-ime
D
If I've learned one lesson
A A G
There ain't no pressing rewi-i-i-ind
D
Time keeps on ticking
A
As long as I'm kicking
A G
This can down the road, I carry my soul
D A
Through the bad rains, I'm dancing in fire
A G
Wasting my ti-i-i-ime
D C A
But I damn sure won't waste it on you
[Instrumental]

You sold me lies, I paid the price
G
I took the chance, I rolled the dice

I wrote as long as long can get
F#m A
And at the end, we all pay the toll
