James Morrison – Too Late For Lullabies (Guitar)

G Em7 Bm A
Ooohhhh

        G                    Em7
It’s a sad song that has no end

       Bm                          D
It’s a bleeding heart that never mends

       G                     Em7
A minor miracle we can still pretend

         Bm        D
After so long

        G                               Em7
Did the apple fall too far from the tree?

        Bm                          D
Did we get lost in the space in-between?

        G                            Em7
But the roots that we buried so deep

                Bm       D
Will always be strong

              G     Em
Too late for lullabies

             Bm     D
Too soon for it alright

               G          Em
Love takes its toll sometimes

              Bm                        A        D
Let’s start a clean slate, mistakes are moments in time

     G                                  Em
For every time you ever raised up your hand

     Bm                               D
I’ll give you mine to show you I understand

                  G       Em      Bm
You taught me to fly by learning to fall

    D
Ooo yeah

       G                    Em7
Love burns when it’s in the blood

              Bm                        D
And god knows I burnt you the best I could

       G                    Em7
How can three words be so misunderstood?

        Bm          D
We got it so wrong

           G                                Em7
Yeah the greatest gift that you ever gave to me

               Bm                                  D
You don’t know your strength ’till you’ve faced defeat

          G                         Em7
So when everything’s just out of reach

              Bm        D
Keep holding on

              G     Em
Too late for lullabies

             Bm     D
Too soon for it alright

               G          Em

          Em                             Bm
We built a brick wall but it’s all for nothing

      Em                         D/F#
Only bridges will cross this divide

        Em                         Bm
We both know this road leads to nowhere

   G                              E   Em
There is nothing left for you to hide

              G     Em
