Dm
I wasn't jealous before we met,
Now ev'ry woman I see is
     C
A potential threat,

Dm
And I'm possessive, it isn't nice,
You've heard me saying that smoking
       C
Was my only vice.

     Dm
But now it isn't true,
    A7/C#
Now ev'rything is new
    Dm
And all I've learned
    A7/E
Has overturned,
   Dm/F   G
I beg of you:

Chorus:
 Dm    A   Dm A
Don't go  wasting
 Dm  A7   A#    A
Your e - mo - tion,
 Dm C    F    A#6
Lay all your love
C   F
On me.

It was like shooting a sitting duck,
A little small talk, a smile and
Baby, I was stuck.

I still don't know what you've done with me,
A grown-up woman should never
Fall so easily.

   Dm
I feel a kind of fear
     A7/C#
When I don't have you near,
   Dm
Unsatisfied
   A7/E
I skip  my pride,
  Dm/F      G
I beg you, dear:

Chorus:
 Dm    A   Dm A
Don't go  wasting
 Dm  A7   A#    A
Your e - mo - tion,
 Dm C    F    A#6
Lay all your love
C   F
On me.
 Dm    A  Dm A
Don't go sharing
 Dm  A7    A#    A
Your de - vo - tion,
 Dm C    F    A#6
Lay all your love
C   F
On me.

I've had a few little love affairs,
They didn't last very long and
They've been pretty scarce.

I used to think that was sensible,
It makes the truth even more
Incomprehensible.

       Dm
'Cause ev'rything is new,
    A7/C#
And ev'rything is you,
3:14
    Dm
And all I've learned
    A7/E
Has overturned,
      Dm/F  G
What can I do?

Chorus:
Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
Don't go sharing your devotion
Lay all your love on me
Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
Don't go sharing your devotion
Lay all your love on me
Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
