Wasted Words
(Gregg Allman)
A
Can you tell me, tell me, friend, just exactly where I've been
Is that so much to ask? I'll pay you back no matter what the task
D A
You seem really sure 'bout something I don't know,
D A
take that load off, looks like chest's about to go.
E D A
Your wasted words already been heard, are you really God, yes or no?
A
Well, all day and half the night you're walkin' round lookin' such a fright.
Is it me or is it you? I'd make a wager and I'd hope you lose.
D A
Time's gone, looks like Rome is 'bout to fall,
D A
next time take the elevator, please don't crawl.
E D A
Your wasted words so absurd, are you really Satan, yes or no?
Well, I ain't no saint and you sure as hell ain't no savior,
every other Christman I would practice good behavior.
That was then, this is now, don't ask me to be mister clean,
'cause baby, I don't know how.
D A
Ring my phone 'bout ten more times, we will see,
D D
find that broke down line and let it be.
E D A
Your wasted words wiill never be heard, go on home baby and watch it on TV.
E D A
Weekday soap-box speciality, you know what I'm talkin' 'bout now,
E D A
by the way, this song's for you, sincerely, me.
