Tomorrows Just Too Late by Kevin Devine
Tomorrows Just Too Late
G D
you drag your tiger’s paw across
C G
your chapped & cracking lips,
Am
and open up a crimson slur
C G?
you spread each time you kiss.
Am Em
the broken boy you bargain with
C D G
to turn back to the man
Am
that you fell in love with once
C
but never saw again.
G D C
is he in there? do you think he drowned to death?
Am G
well it's his decision to show his face again.
G D
you grind your tired teeth
C G
& curse the day that you were born
Am C G?
to a sunken line of Irish wives a million miles long,
Am Em C D G
devoted to the suffering they're certain they deserve.
Am
a husband’s a cross to bear,
C D
worry lines & a silver string of hair
G D C
come too early, come to steal your sainted youth..
Am G D
well it's your decision to stay or else to move.
C G D
& I'm not a man of faith, no gospel oak for me,
C G D
but you wear a crucifix to broadcast your beliefs,
Am Em D C
and the god I've read about can't go where he's not asked to go.
so you've got a choice to make:
shut him out, save yourself, or sit and wait.
G Am
but you're waiting on a man who will not move.
C G
so you must move for him and do what he can't do.
C? C G
cause it’s worth it, that’s the one life you can change,
C? C G
and I'm sorry sister, but it has to end this way.
C? C G
yea, it’s scary sister, but tomorrow’s just too late.
C?
so stand up sister,
C G
there’s an albatross to shake.
