Wasted Years Chords

   
Wasted Years by Maroon 5
Transcribed by Bumpy

I was frustrated when I found no chords for Wasted Years. I heard it on Maroon 5's Live
the 13th album and wanted to play it myself. You can't really be sure for the notes
the song has an awkward overall key, but I tried to make it accurate and interesting to 
and hear, especially acoustically.
That being said: this is my first contribution. ever.


Verse:

Am
Slow is the memory
                     C
I can picture her standing right in front of me
                  Dm                  G
Orange blossoms crushed on concrete
          Em              Am
I walk around with bare feet
       G         Em
And I know you want me

Am
Can't remember everything
               C
Her skin it tastes like sugar cane
                    Dm                        G
And I had already gotten there before I came
     Em       Am
My tank is empty
        G             Em
And I know you're thirsty

Chorus:

Am               C           Dm
I have already tried to explain myself
Dm                      F
It's not that I love someone else
    F                 G            Am
But I can't bear to listen to you cry
Am                     C
I'm sick of all these wasted years
   Dm
A rag for someone else's tears
   F                  G               Am
I wring you out as I hang you out to dry


Breakdown:

Am
C'mon C'mon
C
Get off the phone
Dm
Please come home
                      G
It's been so lonely since you've been gone
Am
you won't surround me
C
up and down me
Dm
Be all around me
                G
Baby I can't breathe no more
