Tonio K - 7 - Better Late Than Never - Life In The Foodchain (1978) chords
Start Jamming...
The insults [Db] and the punches flew just [Abm] like they always had.
[Ab] I knocked her down and left the room, [Eb] but she come running [Ab] back.
And I said, hey, look around.
Hey, look [F] in your mirror.
Lay your [Ab] ego down.
It'll get [Fm] so much clearer.
[F]
Why continue [Db] to push and pull and [Eb] punish each other
when it'd be [Db] so much easier [Eb]
to just find [Ab] another lover?
Now you're feeling cold.
Hey, babe, I'm [F] on fire.
And I'm losing [Ab] control because you've got no [F] desire.
And [Db] so we go firing through the night like [Ab] two lightweight [Eb] contenders.
The flames has gone [Db] out.
[Eb]
Let's extinguish the [Ab] embers.
Put up a flag and lay down your weapon.
That you will battle royally [Db] is a [Ab] long way from heaven.
Call it a mistake
[Db] [Ab] or call it whatever.
[Eb]
[Fm] Let's [Eb] just call [Db] it off
[Eb] better [Ab] late than never.
[Db] Now I got you and you got me, but [Ab] we got no manners at all.
We're still counting down to ecstasy when some [Bbm]
courtesy's [Eb] all the situation wants.
And that's so hard.
So you keep [Ab] the car and all the passionate [Fm] letters.
They won't get you that [Ab] far.
They won't make [Fm] it no better.
And maybe [Db] someday, some other time, we'll try [Eb] this again.
Maybe someday [Db] these flaming hearts [Eb] will learn how to be [Ab] friends.
But right now, put up a flag and [Db]
lay down [Ab] your weapon.
That you will battle [Db] royally is a long [Ab] way from heaven.
Call it a mistake [Db] or call it [Ab] whatever.
[Fm]
[F] Let's just call [Db] it off [Eb] better late than [Ab] never.
I said put up a flag [Db]
and lay [Ab] down your weapon.
That you will battle [Db] royally is a [Ab] long way from heaven.
Call it a mistake [Db] or you can call it [Ab] whatever.
[Cm] [F]
Let's just call [Db] it off [Eb] better late than [Ab] never.
Put up a flag and lay down your weapon.
Put up a flag and lay down your weapon.
Put up a flag.
