Am    
I'm holding on your rope,    
       F               C     G   
Got me ten feet off the ground    
    Am                        F                C    G   
I'm hearing what you say but I just can't make a sound    
    Am   
You tell me that you need me    
F                    C        G   
Then you go and cut me down, but wait    
Am   
You tell me that you're sorry    
F                    C          G   
Didn't think I'd turn around, and say...     

                 Am                   F     C       G   
that it's too late to apologize, it's too late    
            Am                   F     C       G   
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late         

Verse 2:    

    Am                         F   
I'd take another chance, take a fall    
                C  G          
Take a shot for you    
      Am                           F   
And I need you like a heart needs a beat    
                 C    G   
But it's nothing new - yeah    
   Am                  F  
I love you with a fire red     
               C                G 
now it's turning blue .. and you say    
  Am                     F                       C 
"Sorry" like the angel heaven let me think was you  

G 
But I'm afraid...  

Am F C G 

It's too late to apologize, it's too late  
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late

It's too late to apologize, yeah  
I said it's too late to apologize, yeah-  
I'm holdin on your rope, got me ten feet off the ground...
