Spend My Time
By Clint Black
Intro: C Cadd9 C, Fadd9 Dm Fadd9
(When doing C chord, add pinky to high E string 3rd fret. When doing the Dm, just
like Fadd9 only move your pinky up to the B, 3rd fret)
C Cadd9 C Cadd9
How can we know how far the long way can be
C Cadd9 C Cadd9
Looking from where we are it never seemed that long to me
Fadd9 Dm Fadd9 Dm
I've many miles behind me maybe not so much ahead
C Cadd9 C Cadd9
Seems I made good time with the directions I misread
Chorus:
Am F C G
I'm gonna spend my time like it's going out of style
Am F C G
I'm moving the bottom line farther than a country mile
Am F C Am
I still have hills to climb before I hit that wall
F C
No matter how much time I buy, I can never spend it all
C Cadd9 C Cadd9
Funny thing that time, we're always running out
C Cadd9 C Cadd9
I'm always losing mine, there's not enough of it about
Fadd9 Dm Fadd9 Dm
And though it's always here, it will always come and go
C Cadd9 C Cadd9
The days become the years that'll be gone before you know
Chorus 2:
Am F C G
I'm gonna spend my time like it's going out of style
Am F C G
I'm moving the bottom line better than a country mile
Am F C Am
I still have hills to climb before I hit that wall
F
I won't go quietly into that dark night
F
There'll be no more burning daylight
C
I'll be living in
G
Every moment that I'm in
Chorus
Am F C G
I'm gonna spend my time like it's going out of style
Am F C G
I'll only use what’s mine, I’ve been saving for awhile
Am F C Am
I still have hills to climb before I hit that wall
F C
No matter how much time I buy, I can never spend it all
F C
No matter how much time we buy, we can never spend it all
F C F C
I’m gonna spend my time. I’m gonna spend my time.
