Intro: G# Fm Cm D#
G# Fm
It's a sad song that has no end
Cm D#
It's a bleeding heart that never mends
G# Fm
A minor miracle we can still pretend
Cm D#
After so long
G# Fm
Did the apple fall too far from the tree?
Cm D#
Did we get lost in the space in-between?
G# Fm
But the roots that we buried so deep
Cm D#
Will always be strong
G# Fm
Too late for lullabies
Cm D#
Too soon for it alright
G# Fm
Love takes its toll sometimes
Cm A# D#
Let's start a clean slate, mistakes are moments in time
G# Fm
For every time you ever raised up your hand
Cm D#
I'll give you mine to show you I understand
G# Fm Cm
You taught me to fly by learning to fall
D#
Ooo yeah
G# Fm
Love burns when it's in the blood
Cm D#
And God knows I burnt you the best I could
G# Fm
How can three words be so misunderstood?
Cm D#
We got it so wrong
G# Fm
Yeah the greatest gift that you ever gave to me
Cm D#
You don't know your strength 'till you've faced defeat
G# Fm
So when everything's just out of reach
Cm D#
Keep holding on
G# Fm
Too late for lullabies
Cm D#
Too soon for it alright
G# Fm
Love takes its toll sometimes
Cm A# D#
Let's start a clean slate, mistakes are moments in time

You taught me to fly by learning to fall
Fm Cm
We built a brick wall but it's all for nothing
Fm D#
Only bridges will cross this divide
Fm Cm
We both know this road leads to nowhere
Fm G#
There is nothing left for you to hide
G# Fm
Too late for lullabies
Cm D#
Too soon for it alright
G# Fm
Love takes its toll sometimes
