LATE    BEN FOLDS

KEY OF F

 7  -6  -6b  -5 -6b  5   -4 4  -4  5  4
Und-er some dir-ty words on a dir-ty wall

 -4  5   -5   5  -4  4   4
Eat-ing take-out by my-self

-4  -4    5   -5
I played the shows

 -4   5  -5 -6b  -5  5   -4  4   -4   5   4
Got back in the van and put the Walk-man on

-3b  -4   5    4  -3b
And you were play-ing

 5   7   -6 -6b -5 -6b  5   -4   -4   5  4
In some oth-er dive a thou-sand miles a-way

-4  -4   5  -5    5    -4   4   4
I played a thou-sand times be-fore

 -4  -4   5   -5 -6b  -5    -4   -4    5
And like path-et-ic stars, the truck stops 

 -5 -6b  -5    5   -4   4 -4   5    4
and the rock club walls I al-ways knew

 4   -4   5   4   4   -4  5  -4   4 -4  4
You saw them too but you nev-er will a-gain

(CHORUS)

 -4   -4  -4   -6b   -6  -5
It's too late don't you know

  5   -5   5   -4   5 -5b  5    4
It's been too late for a long time

 7 -6 -6b   -5  -6b    5   -4 -4   5   4
El-li-ott, man, you played a fine gui-tar

 -4   5   -5  5  -4  4   4
And some dir-ty bas-ket-ball

 -4   -4   5    -5   -4  5    -5  -6b -5
The songs you wrote get me through a lot

 5    -4   4  -4   5    4
Just want to tell you that

(CHORUS)

-6b -5  -5    -5b   5   -4 -5b
Oh no things were look-ing up

   5    -4     4  4  -3b -6b -5
least that's what I heard Oh no

 -5  -5b   5   -4   -5b  5  -4  4     4   -3b
Some-one came and washed a-way your hard-earned

  -3 4+5  4+5
Peace of mind

 -6b  7   -6b    -5 -6b   5    -4 -4   5    4
When des-p’rate stat-ic beats the si-lence up

-4 -4  5   -5   5  -4   4   4
A qui-et truth to calm you down

 -4   -4   5    -5   -4  5   -5   -6b -5
The songs you wrote got me through a lot

 -5   5  -4   4   -4  5
Just wan-na tell you that

(CHORUS TWICE TO END)

ENJOY!!!
