Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Chorus:
Dm               G
How're you gonna show up late
C                    F
With a coffee in your hand?
Dm               G
How're you gonna have me sit and wait
C                       F
While you hit the coffee stand?
Dm              G
How're you gonna waltz in here?
C             F
Iced coffee in hand
Dm               G
Big smile on your big dumb face
C                    F
Zero mention that you're fifteen late

Verse 1:

Dm                      G
How're you gonna show up late
                           C    F
But have a coffee in your hand?
Dm               G                     C     F
I'm racking my brain but I don't understand
Dm                   G                        C
You, you, you, you, you were fifteen minutes late
F                              Dm
With wet hair and coffee and a scone
C                    F
Seems like you could've skipped one or two
Dm               G
And I wouldn't have been alone
C                    F
Waiting for you, all alone at the
Dm               G
Said time that we set
C                    F
I was here at one on the dot
Dm               G
You were not
C                    F
You lied and said that it was hard to find a parking spot

Chorus:

Dm               G
How're you gonna show up late
C                    F
With a coffee in your hand?
Dm               G
How're you gonna have me sit and wait
C                    F
While you hit the coffee stand?
Dm               G
How're you gonna waltz in here?

Iced coffee in hand
Dm               G
Big smile on your big dumb face
C                    F
Zero mention that you're fifteen late

Verse 2:

Dm               G
I bet you think the song is about you
C                    F
But it's about me
Dm               G
I'm frequently late and walk in with coffee
C                    F
I fucking hate myself for that
Dm               G
But it's who I am
C                    F
Maybe I'll do TM like everyone else in LA
Dm               G
And pay for a mantra, "don't be late
C                    F
Don't bring a coffee and don't be late"
Dm               G
That's my TM mantra, maybe someday
C                    F
Feels weird to pay for a mantra, but that's LA
Dm               G
Seems like meditation should be free
C                    F
Maybe that's just me
Dm               G                  C                    F
That thinks it's a con to make you pay for a mantra
