Too Late Lyrics

This is another kick-ass Goldfinger song. I did this as a request, and
I'm taking any you have off of Hang-ups, or from other cool ska-punk
bands. Anyways, enjoy this one:
: feedback
:
The young boy has turned into a man, and he's growing
stronger. He's battled through things he thought he could go
on no longer.

The father stood by his side, wanting nothing more than just
be his dad. But pride only answers to one call, he only
ii
condemns him.
1st horus
: (starts out bass only!)
*Played during chorus:
And if the boy only knew his father's pain. The nights that
he stayed up late, wondered why. Doesn't he see the future
is so bleak so bleak.
Solo:
:
Father's retired now, he's left with TV and rest. The weight
of the world and what did he do wrong, has gone to his
chest.
ridge
:
He had such a good life. The family he loved were all by his
side. To his son he whispered, "Goddamn this pride."
2nd horus
: (^-heavily palm muted)
D^ G^ C^ D^ G^ C^ D C G
And if the boy only knew his father's pain, the nights that

he stayed up late, wondered why. The choices he made.
C^ D C G
Doesn't he see the future is so bleak, so bleak.

Play F# (let ring), then mess around with feedback.
Then:
*Play these riffs over the chords at the top, with the chords heavily
palm muted:
F# * B * F# * B * F# * B
D-------*-2-2-*------*-----2-2-*------*----2-2-4-4-4s5-4-4--
(con't.)

So f**k I'm all by myself, now you've gone away. You've left
ii
me all by myself with that f**ked up thing you said.
ridge
:

(*one guitar plays these chords, the other plays Fii until the Bb Bb Bb
part).

If I could forgive myself, you knew the way. Now I'm all by
myself, and I'm sorry.
:
But if you only knew your son's pain. How bad that he wanted
you to say "you're doing just fine, you turned out to be one
ii
good guy", but it's too late.
Well? Whadya think? Please e-mail me and tell me I'm the king of
