Title: It's Too Late
Artist: Carole King
transcribed: rjmcpher@uci.edu

notes: Carole King plays the piano and I just arranged the piano chords
for solo acoustic guitar here.  Note that you can substitue a D7 for the
D6 if you prefer the bluesy sound.  I'll put my chord voicing choices at
the bottom but this is all from ear so feel free to choose different
chords.

It's Too Late  (Carole King)

Am7    D6     (little riff notes E G A A A G E)      (2x)

Am7                               D6
Stayed in bed all morning just to pass the time
There's something wrong here there can be no denying
Am7                      Gm7                      Fmaj7
One of us is changing or maybe we've just stopped trying

|[chorus]
|        Bbmaj7               Fmaj7
|And it's too late, baby, now it's too late
|Though we really did try to make it
|   Bbmaj7           Fmaj7              Dm7                E7sus4  E7
|Something inside has died and I can't hide and I just can't fake it


Am7                               D6
It used to be so easy living here with you
You were light and breezy and I knew just what to do
Am7                      Gm7                      Fmaj7
Now you look so unhappy and I feel like a fool

--chorus--

--instrumental built on alternate chord changes--

Dm7   Fmaj7   G7sus   G7      Cmaj7      Fmaj7    Cmaj7      Fmaj7


Am7                               D6
There'll be good times again for me and you
But we just can't stay together don't you feel it too
Am7                      Gm7                      Fmaj7
Still I'm glad for what we had, and how I once loved you
