The Monkees assembled to be the stars of an American television series of the same name, which ran on NBC from 1966 to 1968. The original lineup was: Micky Dolenz (drums, vocals), Michael Nesmith (guitar, vocals), Davy Jones (percussion, vocals) and Peter Tork (bass, keyboards, vocals) . The Monkees were formed in 1965 in Los Angeles, California and initially disbanded in 1970 at the conclusion of their recording contract. At their peak they were competing with The Beatles for the top spot on album charts.

IT'S NOT TOO LATE by The Monkees (David Jones) ***********
This song is actually played in F, but it's a lot easier if you play it in G. I got the lyrics out of the JUSTUS CD. Sarah [email protected]
Intro: G-D-Em-C-G-D-G (2x)
Vs. 1:
GD If I had a penny EmC For every time that I thought about you GDG I would be a millionaire. GD I would send you flowers each day EmC And I would show you in every way GDG Just how much I really care.
Vs 2: The summer sin, and the winter snow The autumn leaves and the spring rains know Just how much I need your love And if I knew that my time was near and you were there I would have no fear Your name would be my dying prayer.
Chorus: GCD It's not too late to turn this ship around GDEmCD To sail into the wind my love before we run aground GCD It's not too late to say that I love you GDEmCD And it's not too late for you my love to say you love me too G It's not too late.
Vs. 3: If I was a rich man's son I would work till the day was done Just to prove my love was true I would take you for my wife And I would love you all my life I would never leave or be untrue.
(Chorus)
Vs 4: You know our future and your feelings And the love that I have for you They're always on my heart and on my mind A neverending love affair We'd go together everywhere Our love will last until the end of time
(repeat Vs. 4) (Chorus 2x)
And then I'm not sure of the ending chords, stupid me. But the words go:
It's not too late It's not too late It's not too late, to turn this ship around.
