Verse 1:
  E                              Abm
Runnin' with you it's like we're in a memory
 Dbm                            A
That we'll try to forget when you grow up and leave
 E                          Abm
Walkin' slow because the time's been running far
 Dbm                      A
Maybe I should grow up, leave you with a scar
 
Pre-Chorus:
 E
You say "I love you" with an accent
 Abm
Then I pretend like nothing happened
 Dbm
Tell me, won't you miss Manhattan?
                        A
And even though this is pointless
                        Am
And even though this is hopeless
 
Chorus:
             Gbm       B
I just wanna waste my time
                 E           Dbm
And I just wanna waste your time
            Gbm         B
We can do anything you like
                E       Dbm
We can talk all night -ooooh-
 
Verse 2:
 E
I'm unsure of you because I know you'll leave
 Abm
You say you love me but I whisper "I don't believe"
 Dbm
Stopping moments cause I can't let it be true
 A
This is going nowhere but I love wasting my time with you
 
Pre-Chorus:
 E
You say "I love you" with an accent
 Abm
Then I pretend like nothing happened
 Dbm
Tell me, won't you miss Manhattan?
                        A
And even though this is pointless
                        Am
And even though this is hopeless
 
Chorus:
             Gbm        B
I just wanna waste my time
                 Dbm         E
And I just wanna waste your time
             Gbm        B
We can do anything you like
                Dbm     E
We can talk all night -ooooh-
       Gbm     B
Just waste my time
 Dbm        E
Waste your time
 
Pre-Chorus:
 Gbm                        B
You say "I love you" with an accent
 E                        Dbm
And then I look away and act like nothing happened
 Gbm                       B
Tell me honestly, will you miss seeing Manhattan?
                         A
And even though this is pointless
                         Am
And even though this is hopeless
 
Chorus:
              Gbm      B
I just wanna waste my time
                  E         Dbm
And I just wanna waste your time
           Gbm          B
We can do anything you like
                 E
We can talk all night
                   Dbm
I'll pretend you're mine
 
Just waste my time
