[Verse]
Cm      Eb         Ab             Eb
Peel away the long drift that’s so pale
Cm      Eb         Ab             Eb
You’re hanging on by your fingernails
Cm      Eb         Ab             Eb
The mirror I play that never gets it right
Cm      Eb         Ab             Eb
That you solicit in the middle of the night
Cm      Eb         Ab             Eb
A frozen skyline stood on an icy rail
Cm      Eb         Ab             Eb
You’re hanging on by your fingernails


[Chorus]
Bb           Cm          Ab
Maybe it’s too late to hear it
Bb           Cm          Ab
Maybe it’s too late to buy
Bb           Cm          Ab
But when you’re always saying means believing
Bb           Cm          Ab
Baby it’s too late to cry

[Verse]
Cm      Eb         Ab             Eb
Threw open them doors
Cm      Eb         Ab             Eb
Rode in on them coattails
Cm      Eb         Ab             Eb
You’re hanging on by your fingernails
Cm      Eb         Ab             Eb
I like to dream of things in the opposite of no
Cm      Eb         Ab             Eb
Like Dixon long to Smith to Thomas in on goal
Cm      Eb         Ab             Eb
The truth of knowing any part of it could fail
Cm      Eb         Ab             Eb
Ya we were hanging on by our fingernails


[Chorus]
Bb           Cm          Ab
Maybe it’s too late to hear it
Bb           Cm          Ab
Maybe it’s too late to buy
Bb           Cm          Ab
But when you’re always saying means believing
Bb           Cm          Ab
Baby it’s too late to cry
