A Waste Of Time

A       F#    E
How dare
E
should I have asked you,
A                F#     E
"What's your name?"
E                D
Should you ask me the same? But dig,
E
let's don't be wasting
A     F#    E
our time
E                            D
Let's don't leave each other blind
E
If you don't want me, my heart can't stand it
A         F#
another time
E
There's only 24 hours
A      F#
in a day
E                                 D
But that don't leave much time to play, I don't dig that no way, honey
E
'Cause my heart can't take it, no,
A
another day

A             C
Listen to me, honey
          A                      C
I've been told by many different girls
         A                C
"Otis, I love you" Oh boy, they tell me this
                A              C
From the bottom of their soul, but they didn't mean it, listen
C            D
I, I've been let down, hit the ground
E                                 E
And called the biggest, the biggest fool
E                                E
The biggest fool to ever walk on this ground, listen

        A            F#
I can't stand it, no no no no
E
To be built up, way on up, and
A      F#
let down
E                            D
Being in love, y'all, is all in my mind
                  E
I don't like that, I like for it to be from my heart and I found out later
      A             C
I was wasting my time
       A                   C
Just a waste of time, yeah
    A                                          C
Somebody understand what I'm saying when I say
            A             C
It's just a waste of time
                      A                                 C
If you don't want me, mama, don't just leave me hangin'
                       A
Don't just let me waste my time, no, no
C                                 A
Somebody, somebody got to get the message to me
