Intro:
Em  D  C  B  (2x)

Verse:

                 C     D       Em
Late at night as I lay down to sleep

                   C       D      Em
I think of all the secrets people keep

                    C
Like how I feel for you

               D
Do you feel it too

                   Em
Or is it something we have to resume

Verse:

C        D        Em
We're just two people watching time fly by

              C       D      Em
In a world in its obvious decline

                     C
But we are young and strong

             D
We can carry on

              Em
Find a little Paradise of our own

Chorus:

                      C
'Cos no one saves the day

                   D
It's no one else's fault

                B                Cmaj7  D
If you're a day late or a dollar short

Intro:
Em  D  C  B

Verse:

                     C      D          Em
Just think about how lovely life could be

                  C        D   Em
Excluding all the man-made misery

                   C
If we're too far behind

                  D
And really out of time

                 Em
Is there another world they plan to find

                   C
Too many dreams of youth

              D
That we never caught

           B                Cmaj7  D
Just a day late or a dollar short

Bridge:

G
  We're all just lonely people

     B                Em
Only dyin' to fall in love

                 C
Feelings that we thought

                D
Dreams we never caught

           B                Cmaj7 D
Just a day late or a dollar short

Solo:
Em  C  D  Em  C  B

Chorus:

Em                   C
  The loneliness, the blues

               D
Feelings so distraught

                  B                Cmaj7
When you're a day late or a dollar short

                   C
Too many dreams of youth

              D
That we never caught

           B                Cmaj7  D
Just a day late or a dollar short

                     C
And no one saves the day

                   D
It's no one else's fault

                  B                Cmaj7  D
When you're a day late or a dollar short
