Dawes - Now that its too late Maria
Intro:
E A B A E
E A B A E
E A B A E E A B A E
The flicker of the candle looks like a one way conversation
E A B A E E
Reacting to something nobody else could see
B C#m
While I sit at the table and relive the whole situation
B E A B
Until the valet who wants to go home comes in and gives me my keys
A E
And tonight every single star is shining
A B
The power lines all sizzle and buzz
A B G#m
And now that it's too late, maria
B E
I see it all for what it was
E A B A E
E A B A E
E A B A E E A B A E
There's nothing sadder than a streetlight shining on a stretch of empty sidewalk
E A B A E E
Or maybe the fog that I've been living in has lifted for the first time in weeks
B C#m
Every day has been a step forward perfecting the art of the small talk
B E A B
So I never have to say something I really mean
A E
But I remember all of those final words you told me
A B
How I was green enough to be blue
A B G#m
But now that it's too late Maria
B E
I can see how that was true
E A B A E E A B A E
Now When I am in your city I come across the company you've been keeping
E A B A E
They all hit it off so well with some infamous ghost of my past
B C#m
It's hard to imagine what you could have possibly told them
B E A B
Some wonder how I'm doing but most don't even ask
A E
But now every single door stands open
A B
I even signed some autographs
A B G#m
And now that it's too late, Maria
B E
We can both look back and laugh
(solo)
E A B A E E A B A E
There's always more to say but I'm just skipping to the ending
E A B A E
When you move back to Texas and I meet a girl who wants to change her name
B C#m
When we both start to forgert the problems that were never worth having
B E A B
And everybody goes on living watching nothing really change
A E
There will always be a part of you thats with me
A B
And sure as hell had better feel the same
A B G#m
and now that it's too late Maria
B E
There is no one here to blame
