Artist: Brendan Benson
Don't [A]Waste your time on peo[Dm]ple going nowhere
Make u[A]p your own mind,and yo[Dm]u're already halfway there
Hesita[A]te, or g[Dm]ive a second thought
And yo[A]u'll be late, f[Dm]orget what you've been taught
[CHORUS]
y[G]ou could have it ni[F]ce, or compli[A]cated
Y[G]ou could pay full p[F]rice or you could t[A]ake it
Y[G]ou could impro[F]vise and be cr[A]eati[D]ve
You've g[G]ot a lot to g[A]ive and You've g[F]ot a life to [E]live
don't put it off another minute longer
don't go all soft,you've gotta be stronger
don't speculate,'cos no one ever knows
Its up to fate,and you can't predict the way it goes
[CHORUS]
[BRIDGE]
Y[G]ou don't do an[D/F#]ything,Y[G]ou won't do an[D/F#]ything
y[G]ou won't say a[D/F#]nything that is[A]n't kind,anyth[G]ing that isn't [F]ni[E]ce
Don't Waste your time on people going nowhere
don't wait in line if you expect to get somewhere
save you breathe,don't wanna hear your stance
It's just a guess,and you only have this chance
[CHORUS]
Coda:(use chorus progression)
you could have it all, you can it all,you can
everything you love, everything you love, everything you love
you can have it all, you can have it all you can... X2
Reach out and take it
you've got so much to give
and you've got a life to live...(end cold on E)
