E E/G# Am6 / Am7 Am
Truly with his thorn in your side and you don't know why
Julie dips her toe in the tide and you don't know why
F#m B C#m
No, she don't know why she got all dolled up for a suicide
F#m B
And when the stage-lights dimmed on the fading scrim,
E A
It was morning before the cheering died
Am B E
Is it too late to tell you that I don't mind
E E/G# Am6 / Am7 Am E E/G# Am6 / Am7 Am
King George in imperial robe and a lazy eye
Knelt down as the semafore broke on his tawdry bride
But we don't know why he got all stressed out on the motherland
With his TV sets and his fighter jets
And the royal ubiquitous handycam
Is it too late to tell you that I don't mind
E E/G# Am6 / Am7 Am E E/G# Am6 / Am7 Am

Here's you with your mom on your back going into the woods
She's so proud that you're staying on track like a good son should
But you don't know why you got all choked up when you said goodbye
And you can hear her still when the nights are still
All crying out for calomine
Am B C#m A
Is it too late to tell you that I don't mind
Am B E
Is it too late to tell you that I don't mind
