D A
You say you love me
D A
And I hardly know your name
D A D A
And if I say I love you in the candlelight
D A
There's no one but myself to blame
D A
But there's something inside
C#m F#m F# A D
That's turning my mind away
A
Oh how I could love you
D A A-A-A-A-A
If I could let you stay
E A
It's late - but I'm bleeding deep inside
E A
It's late - is it just my sickly pride?
E D A D A
Too late - even now the feeling seems to steal away
E D C# B E
So late - though I'm crying I can't help but hear you say
A D
It's late it's late it's late
E A
But not too late
D A
The way you love me
D A
Is the sweetest love around
D A D A
But after all this time, the more I'm trying
D A
The more I seem to let you down
A
Now you tell me you're leaving
C# F#m F# A D
And I just can't believe it's true
A
Oh you know that I can love you
D A
Though I know I can't be true
D A
Oh you made me love you
D A
Don't tell me that we're through
It's late - but it's driving me so mad
It's late - yes I know but don't try to tell me that it's
Too late - save our love you can't turn out the lights
So late - I've been wrong but I'll learn to be right
It's late it's late it's late
But not too late
D
I've been so long
D
You've been so long
D A
We've been so long tryin' to work it out
D
I ain't got long
D
You ain't got long
D F#m
We gotta know what this life is all about
A
You're staring at me
D A
With suspicion in your eye
D A
You say what game are you playing?
D A
What's this that you're saying?
D A
I know that I can't reply
A
If I take you tonight
C# F#m F# A D
Is it making my life a lie?
A
Oh you make me wonder
D A
Did I live my life right?
It's late - but it's time to set me free
It's late - yes I know but there's no way it has to be
Too late - so let the fire take our bodies this night
So late - so let the waters take our guilt in the tide
A D H
It's late it's late it's late it's late
C# F#m
It's late it's late it's late
A
It's all too late
how I could love you
F C C-C-C-C-C
If I could let you stay
