Intro
Cm
[Verse]
Cm
Launching loony thoughts into the bending of your mind
Cm
You reach for something high but it's a mountain that you find
Cm
He's a king dust demon with an icepick smile
Cm
His music fills your feathers as you feel your passions fly
[Verse]
Cm
With the mustache man on the carpet of his van
Cm
You can feel your fatty tissues giving way to sweaty hands
Cm
And the woofers keep distorting and the tweeters kiss the girls
Cm
His horn-rimmed glasses lights a square beneath his curls
[Chorus]
G# D# Gm Cm
I have wasted so much time
G# D# Gm Cm
I have wasted so much time
[Solo]
Cm
[Verse]
Cm
He is like a politician who is practicing a speech
Cm
He is racing, he is pacing, he is sleeping on his beat
Cm
As the sky begins to darken and the waves begin to roll
Cm
You can feel the oceans rising as you're losing all control
[Verse]
Cm
And meanwhile back at the Candlerock Lounge
Cm
It is past 11:30 and your friends are getting down
Cm
They're applying purple eyeshadow, drinking warm beer
Cm
They're wondering where you went to when you told them you'd be here
[Chorus]
G# D# Gm Cm
I have wasted so much time
G# D# Gm Cm
I have wasted so much time
[Interlude]
G# D# Gm Cm
G# D# Gm Cm
[Chorus]
G# D# Gm Cm
I have wasted so much time
G# D# Gm Cm
I have wasted so much ... so much
G# D# Gm Cm
time I have wasted so much
G# D# Gm Cm
time so much so much time
[Outro]
