G                                 D
If you don’t see me caught in your wire
                                   G
If you don’t hear me outside your door
                                   C
If all this waiting just leaves me wanting
                G
You still would be 
     D                G
The sweetest waste of time.

           C
if I could learn
                 G
the ways of your mind
           C
if I could burn
                 G    C
the coal in your cold heart
      G                  D
every time I called your name

            G                      D
if you don’t need me when you get lonely
                                  G
if you don’t want me to call your own
                                  C
if all this hoping just leaves me hurting
                G
You still would be 
    D                 G
The sweetest waste of time

             C
If you could find
                 G
Away through the dark
             C
If you could shine
              G    C
A light on my cold heart
      G              D
every time I lost my way      



            G                      D
If you don’t see me caught in your wire
                                  G
If you don’t hear me outside your door
                                   C
If all this wanting just leaves me waiting
                G
You still would be 
    D                 G       C
The sweetest waste of time

                G
You still would be 
    D                 G
The sweetest waste of time
