DmFBb
Under some dirty words on a dirty wall
CFBb
Eating takeout by myself
GmC
I played the shows
GmCBb
Got back in the van and put the Walkman on
Bbsus2C
And you were playing
DmFBb
In some other dive a thousand miles away
CFBb
I played a thousand times before
GmCGmC
And like pathetic stars, the truck stops and the rock club walls
Bb
I always knew
Bbsus2
You saw them too
FC
But you never will again
GmC)b
It's too late
F
Don't you know
C
It's been too late
BbC
For a long time
DmFBb
Elliott, man, you played a fine guitar
CFBb
And some dirty basketball
GmC
The songs you wrote
GmC
Got me through a lot
BbBbsus2
Just wanna tell you that
FC
But it's too late
GmC)b
It's too late
F
No, don't you know
C
it's been too late
Bb
for a long time
GmC
Oh no
F F/e Dm
Things were looking up
C Bb (b a run)
Least that's what I heard
GmC
Oh no
F F/e Dm C Bb
Someone came and washed away your hard-earned
a Dm
Peace of mind
-- solo --
DmFBb
When desperate static beats the silence up
CFBb
A quiet truth to calm you down
GmC
The songs you wrote
GmC
Got me through a lot
BbBbsus2
Just wanna tell you that
FC
But it's too late
GmC)b
It's too late
F
No, don't you know
C
it's been too late
Bb
for a long time
FC
It's too late
GmC)b
It's too late
F
No, don't you know
C
It's been too late
BbBbsus2
For a long time
