Lyrics

Verse
G c g g c d g
When you get inside my head it just goes emp ty
G c g g c d g
With all that junk I've been fed you'd think I'd make you get me
Hey baby what are you blind? how long you been gone?
I'm not the returning kind I don't need you to lean on

Chorus
C g d c c g d
You come to me with eyes all watery, do you believe I'm falling?
C g d c
Poor little thing so out of date
G d c d g
Now I can say your love has turned up too late
G c d g
Oooh oooh ooh ooooooh

Verse
If you were the sun and the moon I'd still cloud over
Rain would still fall down too soon and we would just grow colder
Hey baby I ain't ashamed of being turned down
I hope you've got the same strength you're going to need it now

Repeat chorus

Bridge
C g c d c g d
Love takes a toll on everyone baby, you're going to find out some day
C g c d
It don't feel too good it don't feel too great
C d
To tell you it's turned up too late
G c g c g c g c d g
Mmm mmm mmm mmm mm turned up too late

Final chorus
You come to me with eyes all watery, do you believe I'm falling?
Poor little thing so out of date
Now I can say your love has turned up too late
Now I can say your love has turned up too late
Now I can say your love has turned up too late
Turned up too late
Turned up too late oh yeah
