"So we mDeet again!" and I offer my hand
All dGry and English sAlow.
And you lDook at me, and I understand,
Yeah, it's a lGook I used to kAnow.
"TDhree long years... and your favourite man...
Is that Gany way to say Ahello?",
And you hoDld me..G. like you'll nAever let me goD.G  A  
D   G   A
"Oh c'moDn and have a drink with me,
Sit dGown and talk a wAhile..."
"Oh I wDish I could... and I will! 
But now I jGust don't have the tAime..."
And oDver my shoulder as I walk away,
I sGee you give that loAok goodbye...D  
I still see that look in youGr eye..A.
So dEmizzy Mr. Busy - Too much rAush to talk to Billy,
All the sEmilly frilly things have to firAst get done.
In a mEminute - sometime soon - maybe nAext time - make it June,
Until lEmater... doesn't Aalways come.D  G  A  
Until laDter..G. doesn't Aalways come.D  G  A  
D   G   A
It's so hDard to think "It ends sometime,
And tGhis could be the laAst".
I should rDeally hear you sing again,
And I should rGeally watch you dAance,
Because it's hDard to think
"I'll never get anGother chanceA  
To holDd you... to holGd you..A. "
But cEmhilly Mr. Dilly - Too much rAush to talk to Billy,
All the tEmizzy fizzy idiot things mAust get done.
In a Emsecond - just hang on - all in gAood time - won't be long,
Until lEmater..A.
I shGould've stopped to tAhink - I should've mGade the time.A  
I coGuld've had that drAink - I could've taGlked a while.A  
I woGuld've done it riAght - I would've mGoved us on,A  
But I dGidn't - now it's aAll too late,G  
It's oAver... And you're Dgone...G  A  
D   G   A
I mDiss you, I miss you, I miss you, I miss you,
I mGiss you, I miss you so Amuch..D.G  A  
But hDow many times can I walk away
And wGish "If oAnly..."
HDow many times can I talk this way
And wGish "If oAnly..."
KDeep on making the same mistake,
KGeep on aching the sAame heartbreak,
I wDish "If only..."
But "If oGnly...A."
Is a wish too Aadd9late...

The Cure - "Cut Here"

"Chorded" by ViviEatWorld

"So we meet again!" and I offer my hand

G A

All dry and English slow.

And you look at me, and I understand,

G A

Yeah, it's a look I used to know.

"Three long years... and your favourite man...

G A

Is that any way to say hello?",

D G A D G A

And you hold me... like you'll never let me go.

D G A

"Oh c'mon and have a drink with me,

G A

Sit down and talk a while..."

"Oh I wish I could... and I will!

G A

But now I just don't have the time..."

And over my shoulder as I walk away,

G A D

I see you give that look goodbye...

G A

I still see that look in your eye...

Em A

So dizzy Mr. Busy - Too much rush to talk to Billy,

Em A

All the silly frilly things have to first get done.

Em A

In a minute - sometime soon - maybe next time - make it June,

Em A D G A

Until later... doesn't always come.

D G A D G A

Until later... doesn't always come.

D G A

It's so hard to think "It ends sometime,

G A

And this could be the last".

I should really hear you sing again,

G A

And I should really watch you dance,

Because it's hard to think

G A

"I'll never get another chance

D G A

To hold you... to hold you... "

Em A

But chilly Mr. Dilly - Too much rush to talk to Billy,

Em A

All the tizzy fizzy idiot things must get done.

Em A

In a second - just hang on - all in good time - won't be long,

Em A

Until later...

G A G A

I should've stopped to think - I should've made the time.

G A G A

I could've had that drink - I could've talked a while.

G A G A

I would've done it right - I would've moved us on,

G A G

But I didn't - now it's all too late,

A D G A

It's over... And you're gone...

D G A

I miss you, I miss you, I miss you, I miss you,

G A D G A

I miss you, I miss you so much...

But how many times can I walk away

G A

And wish "If only..."

How many times can I talk this way

G A

And wish "If only..."

Keep on making the same mistake,

G A

Keep on aching the same heartbreak,

I wish "If only..."

G A

But "If only...."

Aadd9

Is a wish too late...
