Before I Waste My Time
Music and Lyrics by: Mark Joseph
Notes:
1. All Chords played as Bar Chords with the exception of 'E' played at the root position.
2. Bar Chords Bm and Cm, only play the 6th and 5th Strings and damp slightly.
2. Listen to the record to hear how to play the Dm chord with the characteristic slur.
