I Wasted A Nickel Last Night

G I put a nickel in the telephone C To find out dear if you'd be home D7 G I wasted a nickel last night I guess I've wished a million times C It hadn't been a party line D7 G I wasted a nickel last night C I heard you tell a friend of mine G That I was not the one A7 Why did you play me for a fool D7 So you could have your fun G If I had known it from the start C It might have saved a broken heart D7 G The nickel I wasted last night I lost a nickel but I lost much more C It seems I hear it o'er and o'er D7 G I wasted a nickel last night My castles have all fallen down C I saw them tumble to the ground D7 G A nickel changed it all last night C But someday when your world gets lonely G And your friends are few A7 The door of love is open dear D7 I'm waiting here for you G A nickel has it's story told C Of love not worth its weight in gold D7 G I wasted a nickel last night
