Verse 1
Cm9
"Meet me at the gates at eight
Bb/D
Leave now, don't be late"
Ebsus2
She said one day she'd walk away
F7sus4
F/G
'Cause I was always late
Cm9
Thought things were okay
Bb/D
Didn't care though anyway
Ebsus2
F7sus4
Say "Sorry, babe, I had to meet a mate",
F/G
tempting our fate
Cm9
We first met through a shared view
Bb/D
She loved me and I did too
Ebsus2
F7sus4
F/G
It's now 7:50, getting ready, better be nifty
Cm9
Do my hair quickly, step out, it's cloudy
Bb/D
Ebsus2
Mate bells me to borrow money,
F7sus4
F/G
I've got two Henrys and a dealer to pay
Cm9
Call up on geezers
Bb/D
to rid these green trees of my reeking jeans
Ebsus2
Got a "You think I care?" air,
F7sus4
F/G
out- glaring geezers' stares
Cm9
I'm here and I'm there
Bb/D
Couldn't see past the end of my beer
Ebsus2
What was getting near
F7sus4
F/G
all the silence after the cheers
Chorus 1
F/G
Cm9
I didn't know that it was over
Bb/D
Ebsus2
F7sus4
'Til it was too late, too late
F/G
Cm9
But if I ever needed you
Bb/D
Ebsus2
F7sus4
Would you be there?
Verse 2
"Meet me at the gates,
Bb/D
But pretty soon the day came for change
Ebsus2
F7sus4
And I was glad she never walked away
F/G
So I'm choosing what to wear
Cm9
Doing my hair with an hour to spare
Bb/D
When my life went pear,
Ebsus2
F7sus4
she'd been there with a thick stare
F/G
Cm9
Big wheel climbed to the top
Geezers' stares bounced off
Bb/D
Standing at the top
Ebsus2
of this huge mountain
F7sus4
F/G
Smiling and shouting
Cm9
Spring flowers sprouting
Not one inch of doubt in my mind
Bb/D
As I reached the gates
Ebsus2
F7sus4
Came around the corner at a rate
Cm9
but I was gonna set things straight
Bb/D
Never again am I gonna be late
Ebsus2
Never again am I gonna be late
F7sus4
F/G
Never again am I gonna be
Chorus 2

(late) I didn't know that it was over

Bb/D
Ebsus2

Verse 3
"Meet me at the gates
Leave now, don't be late"
I waited for a while listening to her voicemail,
mind set sail
Then the facts turned me pale
Wind, rain and hail
My fears unveiled for my fair female
F/G
Cm9
She'd walked away
Too little, too late
Bb/D
Ebsus2
I step up the pace, walk past the gates,
F7sus4
F/G
rain runs over my face
Cm9
Spirit falls from grace
Bb/D
I purchase a hazy escape
Ebsus2
F7sus4
at the alcohol place In the Chase
F/G
Cm9
I sat down, got a fat frown
Bb/D
Weeping and drown in my senses
Ebsus2
F7sus4
F/G
For this love game's expen- sive
Cm9
I walk in a trance
Bb/D
Got a wounded soldier stance
Ebsus2
And the everyday geezers' stares
F7sus4
F/G
throw me off balance
Cm9
Now nothing holds significance
Bb/D
And nothing holds relevance
Ebsus2
'Cause the only thing I can see
F7sus4
F/G
is her elegance
Chorus 3
F/G
Cm9
I didn't know that it was over
Bb/D
Ebsus2
F7sus4
