[Verse 1]
Too Late
And yeah baby it's too late
And time has made the spell obey
And now it's time to desecrate
[Pre-Chorus]
But we had a dream
And it was meant to be
And we were kissing gods
Against all the odds
[Chorus]
Now it's a crying shame
And it's a crying shame
We don't know who to blame
It'll never be the same
And it's a crying shame
[Verse 2]
Too much
And we demolish too much
And yeah we really fucked it up
Yeah baby you lost your touch
[Pre-Chorus]
But we had a dream
And it was meant to be
And we were kissing gods
Against all the odds
[Chorus]
Now it's a crying shame
And it's a crying shame
You don't know who to blame
It'll never be the same
And it's a crying shame

Pre-Chorus
The pre-chorus is quite difficult to play, so i thought i'd tab my easy version. These
just the chords that Matt plays.

e|-------------------| You'll have to trust me on the second chord, it sounds
