Title: Daylight's Wasting
Artist: Savoy
Music and Lyrics: Lauren and Paul Waaktaar-Savoy
This is pretty close I think but amendments and corrections are always welcome.
(Em G x2)
Bm G
Washington Square's right up the street.
Em F#m7
That was the place where we would meet.
Em
Outside the dog run don't be late,
G Bm
most of the time I'd sit and wait
G
looking at people pass me by.
Em F#m7
A customer's bagging his supply.
Em
Just when you thought she wouldn't show
G Bm Em G
there she comes running, don't you know
Em G
Daylight's wasting
Em G
Daylight
Em G
And I can taste it
Bm (Em G x2)
as it falls from the sky
I had a band of certain fame,
the Brownstone Walk-Ups was our name.
The singer was fair but got it wrong,
he never did justice to my songs.
He did for me and that's a fact
when he went and stabbed me in the back.
So I've gotta do now, don't you know,
what I should've done five years ago.
Daylight's wasting
Daylight
And I can taste it
as it falls from the sky
