Late chords by Chelsea Peretti

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Chorus:
Dm        G
How're you gonna show up late
C          F
With a coffee in your hand?
Dm        G
How're you gonna have me sit and wait
C            F
While you hit the coffee stand?
Dm       G
How're you gonna waltz in here?
C       F
Iced coffee in hand
Dm        G
Big smile on your big dumb face
C          F
Zero mention that you're fifteen late

Verse 1:

Dm           G
How're you gonna show up late
              C  F
But have a coffee in your hand?
Dm        G           C   F
I'm racking my brain but I don't understand
Dm          G            C
You, you, you, you, you were fifteen minutes late
F               Dm
With wet hair and coffee and a scone
C          F
Seems like you could've skipped one or two
Dm        G
And I wouldn't have been alone
C          F
Waiting for you, all alone at the
Dm        G
Said time that we set
C          F
I was here at one on the dot
Dm        G
You were not
C          F
You lied and said that it was hard to find a parking spot

Chorus:

Dm        G
How're you gonna show up late
C          F
With a coffee in your hand?
Dm        G
How're you gonna have me sit and wait
C          F
While you hit the coffee stand?
Dm        G
How're you gonna waltz in here?
C          F
Iced coffee in hand
Dm        G
Big smile on your big dumb face
C          F
Zero mention that you're fifteen late

Verse 2:

Dm        G
I bet you think the song is about you
C          F
But it's about me
Dm        G
I'm frequently late and walk in with coffee
C          F
I fucking hate myself for that
Dm        G
But it's who I am
C          F
Maybe I'll do TM like everyone else in LA
Dm        G
And pay for a mantra, "don't be late
C          F
Don't bring a coffee and don't be late"
Dm        G
That's my TM mantra, maybe someday
C          F
Feels weird to pay for a mantra, but that's LA
Dm        G
Seems like meditation should be free
C          F
Maybe that's just me
Dm        G         C          F
That thinks it's a con to make you pay for a mantra
