Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
Am C G F
Lost in the city haze,
Am C G F
Wondering about those wasted days.
Am C G F
Dreams we left behind,
Am C G F
In the search of something defined.

(Chorus)
Am C G F
Here’s to those Wasted Days,
Am C G F
Broken dreams and astray ways.
Am C G F
Let’s raise a toast to the pain,
Am C G F
The sunshine after the rain.

(Verse 2)
Am C G F
Nights spent under the stars,
Am C G F
Dreaming about those electric guitars.
Am C G F
Music was our escape,
Am C G F
From the world’s monotonous shape.

(Chorus)
Am C G F
Here’s to those Wasted Days,
Am C G F
Broken dreams and astray ways.
Am C G F
Let’s raise a toast to the pain,
Am C G F
The sunshine after the rain.
