[Intro]
F Em7 A7
Bb6 A7 Dm C

[Verse 1]
F Em7 A7
Me and Billy were a couple of kids
Bb6 A7 Dm C
Nobody knew about the things that we did
F Em7 A7
Sharing all our toys and riding our bikes
Bb6 A7 Dm C
We thought it would last for the rest of our lives

[Chorus]
Gm7
But we gave it all up
Am7
We gave it all up
Bb/C F
We gave it all up for school

[Verse 2]
F Em7 A7
Then my family had to move out of town
Bb6 A7 Dm C
Made some new friends and started hanging around
F Em7 A7
Started stealing like the rest of the guys
Bb6 A7 Dm C
My friend got caught, I saw the fear in his eyes

[Chorus]
Gm7
So I gave it all up
Am7
I gave it all up
Bb/C F
I gave it all up for love

[Verse 3]
F Em7 A7
She was eighteen and I topped her by one
Bb6 A7 Dm C
She said she'd heard about the bad things I've done
F Em7 A7
But she loved me and she just didn't care
Bb6 A7 Dm C
But one night, she needed me and I wasn't there

[Chorus]
Gm7
So she gave me right up (gave me right up)
Am7
She gave me right up (gave me right up)
Bb/C F
She gave me right up for love

[Bridge]
Bb C F F7
As I look back and wonder
Bb A7 Dm Cm7
Have I wasted my time?
