  Intro: C G F C Dm Am F

  Verse:

 C                     Dm
I'm not used to coming through
 E                     F
I'm more accustomed to a falling out
 C                     Dm
I'm trying hard now as I can for you
 E                     F
Not to fuck up on some stupid doubt

 C                     Dm
I got your hopes set way up high
 E                     F
Way on up there where the air is thin
 C                     Dm
The limit's supposed to be the sky
 E                     F
I'm trying not to let you down again

  Chorus:

 C      G    F         C
It's starting to come to me
 Dm          Am     F
I didn't know about, I hadn't figured it out
     C      G    F         C       
But it's starting to come to me now
 Dm       Am     F
A little bit too late

  Verse:

 C                     Dm
I can't see anything you've done
 E                     F
Any reason for the trouble you've got
 C                     Dm
You haven't hurt anyone
 E                     F
Compared to most I'd say that's saying quite a lot

 C                     Dm
I can't help you when you're sad
 E                     F
That's a constant source of pain to me
 C                     Dm
Because I want to really bad
 E                     F
Even though you make it seem like nothing

  Chorus:

 C      G    F         C
It's starting to come to me
 Dm          Am     F
I didn't know about, I hadn't figured it out
     C      G    F         C       
But it's starting to come to me now
 Dm       Am     F
A little bit too late
