G                      Am7
I said, "Man, what are you doing here?
C                    D
I saw the band just bought you a beer
G                   Am7
I used to see your face all over
C             D
TV shows and magazine covers"
             G                      Am7
He said, "I went through a fortune just like that
 C                        D
Down to the shirt that I got on my back"
G                        Am7
I said "How?" He said, "Pretty damn fast"
     C
But hey man, since you asked

Chorus:
                G            Am7
"I spent it on high living, wild women
      C                  D
That roulette wheel that I kept it spinning
 G               Am7
Beachside bars, big shiny cars
 C                 D
Long vacations in warm locations
       G                     Am7
I was going nonstop 'til I squeezed every drop
         C                     D
Of that good time, top shelf sweet life that
   G   Am7
I tasted
        C                      D
And to tell you the truth the rest,
        G      Am7 C D
I just wasted"

He kinda laughed underneath those shades
He said, "Yeah, son, I had it made
I had a big boat, it made me smile
It burned money, gallons to miles
I really don't worry 'bout where it went
'Cause it's still fun thinkin' 'bout when

Chorus:
"I spent it on high living, wild women
That roulette wheel that I kept spinnin'
Beachside bars, big shiny cars
Long vacations in warm locations
I was going nonstop 'til I squeezed every drop
Of that good time top shelf, sweet life that
I tasted
And to tell you the truth, the rest, I just wasted

 D
"Yeah, I could have put it in the bank somewhere
     C
and saved it
D                                           C
No, son, you ain't never gonna hear me complaining

Chorus:
"I spent it on high living, big tippin'
Limo rides and champagne sippin'
First class tickets to who knows where
It really didn't matter 'til we got there
I was going nonstop 'til I squeezed every drop
Of that good time, top shelf sweet
life that I tasted
And to tell you the truth the rest, I just wasted

"I spent it on lovin' and livin'
Loved every minute
The rest, I wasted
The rest, I wasted"
