[Intro]
Bm
[Verse 1]
Bm D Esus2
Father's hands were lined with dirt
Bm
From long days in the field
D Esus2
And mother's hands are serving meals
Bm
In a café on Main Street
D
With mouths to feed
Esus2 Bm
She's trying to keep clothing on our backs
A Esus2
And all I hear about
Is how it's so bad, it's so bad
[Chorus]
G
It's too bad, it's too bad
D Em
Too late, so wrong, so long
G D
It's too bad that we had no time to rewind
Em
Let's walk, let's talk (Let's talk)
[Verse 2]
Bm D Esus2
You left without saying goodbye
Bm
Although I'm sure you tried
D Esus2
You call the house from time to time
Bm
To make sure we're alive
D Esus2
But you weren't there
Bm
Right when I needed you the most
A Esus2
And now I dream about it
and how it's so bad, it's so bad
[Chorus]
G
It's too bad, it's too bad
D Em
Too late, so wrong, so long
G D
It's too bad that we had no time to rewind
Em
Let's walk, let's talk
G
It's so bad, it's too bad, it's too bad
D Em
Too late, so wrong, so long
G D
It's too bad that we had no time to rewind
Em
Let's walk, let's talk (Let's talk)
[Solo]
[Verse 3]
Bm D Esus2
Father's hands are lined with guilt
For tearing us apart
Bm D Esus2
Guess it turned out in the end
Bm
Just look at where we are
D Esus2 Bm
We made it out, still got clothing on our backs
A Esus2
And now I scream about it
and how it's so bad, it's so bad, it's so bad, it's so bad
[Chorus]
G
It's too bad, it's too bad
D Em
Too late, so wrong, so long
G D
It's too bad that we had no time to rewind
Em
Let's walk, let's talk
G
It's so bad, it's too bad, it's too bad
D Em
Too late, so wrong, so long
G D
It's too bad that we had no time to rewind
Em
Let's walk, let's talk
[Outro]
G D Em
No time, let's walk, let's talk
G D Em
