Am7Am7
Don't wanna listen to my telephone ring
   Fmaj7Fmaj7
Or sing ding-a-ling or talk about a thing
Em9Em9 (022032) or (020002)
Not this mornin'

Am7Am7
I don't wanna think about the night before
   Fmaj7Fmaj7
Or maybe it's a bore behind that open door
Em9Em9
Got no time for that this mornin'

Dmaj7Dmaj7
If I had the mind or I had the time
C majorC
Maybe I could throw together a new kind of rhyme
Dmaj7Dmaj7
And tell about my warnin'

Bm7Bm7
But it's too late now
B minorBm
It's too late now
Am7Am7
It's too late now

Am7Am7
I don't wanna think about a runaway Dad
    Fmaj7Fmaj7
That took away the only thing that I've ever had
Em9Em9
Don't even miss him this mornin'

Am7Am7
I don't wanna think about a cold goodbye
    Fmaj7Fmaj7
Or a high school buddy got a little too high
Em9Em9
I can't help him out this mornin'

Dmaj7Dmaj7
Reviewers laugh at me so I go out to sea
C majorC
And perhaps it's just as well, 'cause I'd rather be in hell
Dmaj7Dmaj7
Than be a wealthy man this mornin'

Bm7Bm7
But it's too late now
B minorBm
It's too late now
Am7Am7
It's too late now

A augmentedA (x02232)
Whatever happened to images, 'cause now they're gone
A augmentedA
And worn out phrases just keep a-hangin' on
A augmentedA
Whatever happened to homes as opposed to houses?
A augmentedA
A majorA conversation, sayings as the evening drowses
A augmentedA
It's just like 4 6 2 O 1
A augmentedA
It's just like 4 6 2 O 1

A augmentedA
Whatever happened to early morning urban skies?
A augmentedA
And broken faces, half with melting eyes
A augmentedA
Enough of riddles that just play with time
A augmentedA
'Cause I'm still here and I can't beg a dime
A augmentedA
I'm back here in 4 6 2 O 1

A augmentedA
I'm back here in 4 6 2 O 1

                    A augmentedA
Some bed is waitin' for me 'round the corner now
Dmajadd9                 A augmentedA
I gotta find it and try and hang on for a little while
Dmajadd9         A augmentedA
Back here in 4 6 2 O 1, yeah
Dmajadd9             A augmentedA
Mmm, there's gotta be a few small changes made

Am7Am7
Don't wanna listen to my telephone ring
Fmaj7Fmaj7
Or sing ding-a-ling or talk about a thing
Em9Em9
