Intro: (  Em  C/E D/E  G/E D/E  C/E Em )

Em                        C/E  D/E                
 Somewhere in the distance, I hear the bells ring
G/E D/E                     C/E          Em
   Darkness settles on the town as the children start to sing
         Em                   C/E D/E                
And the lady 'cross the street,   she shuts out the night
G/E          D/E                      C/E  Em
   There's a cast of thousands waiting, as she turns out the light

          Em     C/E D/E    G/E D/E       C/E  Em
But it's too late,   too late,  too late, too late for love
 Em     C/E D/E    G/E D/E       C/E  Em
Too late,   too late,  too late, too late

Em                    C/E       D/E                
London boys are gazing, as the girls go hand in hand
G/E       D/E                     C/E     Em
   With a pocket full of innocence, their entrance is grand
         Em               C/E D/E                
And the queen of the dream, stands before them all
G/E      D/E                 C/E       Em
   She stretches out her hand, as the curtains start to fall

          Em     C/E D/E    G/E D/E       C/E  Em
But it's too late,   too late,  too late, too late for love
 Em     C/E D/E    G/E D/E       C/E  Em
Too late,   too late,  too late, too late

  Em                    C/E D/E                
Standing by the trapdoor,  aware of me and you
G/E    D/E                C/E       Em
   The actor and the clown, they're waiting for their cue
              Em               C/E   D/E                
And there's a lady over there, she's acting pretty cool
G/E    D/E                      C/E     Em
  But when it comes to playing life she always plays the fool

          Em     C/E D/E    G/E D/E       C/E  Em
But it's too late,   too late,  too late, too late for love
 Em     C/E D/E    G/E D/E       C/E  Em
Too late,   too late,  too late, too late

Interlude: C (  Am G/A Am  Am Bm/A Am ) x4
                Oh....

Solo:  ( Em C   D )  x3  Em  C G D A

          Em     C/E D/E    G/E D/E       C/E  Em
But it's too late,   too late,  too late, too late for love
 Em     C/E D/E    G/E D/E       C/E  Em
Too late,   too late,  too late, too late
 Em     C/E D/E    G/E D/E       C/E  Em
Too late,   too late,  too late, too late
