Cage the Elephant – Too Late To Say Goodbye (Ukulele)

Em                           B
Oh my precious ember burning my sweet glowing light

C                               B
From the moment I first saw you I was yours and you were mine

Em                              B
Deep down we both knew you were trouble by design

C                                 B
And the echo of my mother's words baby don't you play with fire

Em    D                        Em         D
I was always playing the part: first love only set by a spark

Em        D                  B
There was no way changing my mind

           Em                  C
Now I'm under your spell trapped in a lie

               D                       B
Shouldn't have stood that close to the fire

           Em                C
No turning back no where to run

            D          B
No where to hide it's too late to say goodbye

Em                  C                  D               B
Push back from my heart wish we could go back to the start

          Em          C            D
But oh my God is this real no more time

         B
it's too late it's too late to say goodbye

Em                              B
I can hear the sounds of sirens circling around

C                                   B
Forced to watch the ashes floating, softly drifting to the ground

Em                            B
Deep down we both knew it was trouble by design

C                                   B
And the echo of my mother's words, "baby don't you play with fire."

Em    D                        Em         D
I was always playing the part: first love only set by a spark

Em        D                  B
There was no way changing my mind

           Em                  C

            D          B
No where to hide it's too late to say goodbye

Em                  C                  D               B
Push back from my heart wish we could go back to the start

          Em          C            D
But oh my God is this real no more time

         B
it's too late it's too late to say goodbye

C             D                 B             C
After all the dust has settled, we can settle down

C               D           B           C
Just the two of us forever, no one else around

B           C      B
No one else around aroooound

           Em                  C
Now I'm under your spell trapped in a lie

               D                       B

           Em                C
No turning back no where to run

          Em          C            D
But oh my God is this real no more time

         B
it's too late it's too late to say goodbye
