        G                                 C   
Well, I was never one to back down from a fight, or run  
 
       G       C    
from a problem 
 
   G                                       C 
Of all those things the youngest boy could be, I was the  
 
G        C 
wild one 
 
G                                     C 
Mama did the best she could to try to raise me right, but I  
 
        G     C  
didn't listen 
 
  G                             C        
I learned a lot of things in my life, I never learned my  
 
 G     C 
lesson 
 
     D                       C                  G  
I was  chasin' my dreams and runnin' from my convictions 
 
D                      C           G 
Chasin' my tail getting  all the attention 
 
D                         C               D 
Had all the potential, but  lackin' in direction 
 
Chorus: 
 
        G          D        C                  G  D  C   
I spent most of my money on things I didn't need 
         
        G          D     C                             
I spent most of my youth strung out on whiskey and  
 
    G  D  C 
speed 
 
D                        C             G      
Spent most of my love on ladies of the night 
 
D                         C             G  
Spent most of my time out lookin' for a fight 
 
     D                 C                         D       C 
It's all said and done I guess I, I guess I must confess 
 
       D          G 
I just wasted the rest 
 
 
G                                         C  
Me and the boys used to go down town, had nothin' to do and  
            
           G  C 
nowhere to go 
 
G                                      C   
Small town boys with big ideas that we heard about on the  
 
  G   C 
radio 
 
    G                                          C 
And all I wanted was to live the life of those songs that  
 
               G  C   
they used to play 
 
      G                           C                       
Yeah, I want to rock and roll all night, and party every    
 
G   C 
day 
 
D                   C               G    
One day in school I learned about protection 
 
D                   C               G    
One night in jail I learned about redemption 
 
D                           C              D 
Seems most of life had been,  such a contradiction 
 
Repeat Chorus: 
 
Bridge: 
 
D                      C         G   
Can't say I'm proud of all my indiscretions 
 
D                          C            G 
Can't say I'm sorry for my lack of apprehension 
 
D                         C                   D 
Man I had some good times,  in case I didn't mention 
 
 
Chorus: 
 
        G          D        C                     G  D  C   
I spent most of my money on things, I'll never need 
 
        G          D           C                             
I spent most of my youth kinda strung out on the whiskey  
 
        G  C 
and speed 
 
        D                        C             G 
I spent most of my love on those ladies of the night 
 
        D                   C             G  
I spent most of my time out lookin' for a fight 
 
  D                             C               D    C  
I guess you could say, I really put life to the test 
 
           D          G  
And I just wasted the rest 
  
       D          G 
I just wasted the rest 
 
       D         G   
Man, I wased the rest 
 
        D          G 
Lord, I wasted the rest
