[Verse 1]
    G                           Gmaj7                Em7 Cm/Eb
The whole town is talking 'bout how you've fallen in love
  G                       Gmaj7                     Em7 
I read in the papers he's someone that girls dream about
Cm/Eb        G                 Gmaj7  
Some kind of ruler on top of a kingdom
           Em7                Cm/D  
I'm just a jester, I'll never be him
               G/D         
Last night you called to me
D7sus4
It almost killed me

[Chorus]
   G                      
To hear you scream my name
     Gmaj7                     
Your smile still kills the same
  Cmaj7               
I almost turned around
    Cm                     
You chased me to the ground
    G                     
You asked me how I've been
    Gmaj7         
But how do I begin
   Cmaj7                      
To tell you I should've chased
     Cm                       
You 'cross every single state?
  G/D                       
I lay down my sword for fate
Cm/Eb                        N.C.
'Cause it's too little, way too late

[Verse 2]
G                   Gmaj7                      G6   Cm6/G
I didn't need the reminder of things I've done wrong
   G                   Gmaj7            G6  Cm6/G
Of promises broken, fragility hidden in song
                 G                      Gmaj7    
Guess that we're soulmates in different lifetimes
            C/G                   Cm6/G   
What if you leave him? Throw me a lifetime
            G/D         C#dim7
I know that you're happy
            Cm6      
But it just killed me

[Chorus]
   G                      
To hear you scream my name
  Gmaj7              
A clear fucking x-ray
   Cmaj7              
Of if I'd stuck around
  Cm                           
I swear to God I almost drowned
    G                     
You asked me how I've been
    Gmaj7            
But how could I begin
   Cmaj7                          
To tell you I should've chased you
Cm6                               
I should be who you're engaged to?

[Bridge]
G/D                    
Lost my fight with fate
  Cm/Eb                       
A tug-of-war of leave and stay
  Em                 
I give in, I abdicate
  G6/F                    
I lay my sword down anyway
     Em                      
I'll see you at Heaven's gate
       Cm/Eb                        G
'Cause it's too little, way too late

[Outro]
     Cm                            G
I'll toast outside your wedding day
Cm                        G       
Whisper vows I'll never say to you
Cmmaj7
'Cause it's too little, all too late
