Intro:  C  Bb  Am  F 
        Am  C  F 

      F                         C                            
When love comes so late, it'll really hit hard 
    Bb                            F  
It slams through the gate, it'll catch you off guard 
                        C 
Everyone said, 'What a perfect love match 
        Bb                       F         
'Cause she is so smart, she's a hell of a catch' 
        Am               Bb 
I was drinking in love, gulping it down 
                          C 
Drifting for months on a billowing cloud 
    Am              Bb 
But after awhile I stopped to rebel 
                              C    
I'm back in the past and I'm raising up hell 
       Bb                                           F 
But I think I've just made the biggest mistake of my life 
       Bb                                           F 
And I think I've just made the biggest mistake of my life 
                              C 
We'd been living together for over a year 
     Bb                    F 
The harmony's perfect, it rang loud and clear 
                          C 
But then very slowly, my nerves start to fray 
     Bb                  F 
The little things big, that's what they say 
  Am                 Bb 
I acted impatient, I acted unkind 
                            C 
I took her for granted, I played with her mind 
     Am                   Bb 
She didn't deserve it but it was too late 
                                C 
I walked out the door and left her to her fate 
        Bb                                          F 
But I think I've just made the biggest mistake of my life 
        Bb                                          F 
And I think I've just made the biggest mistake of my life 

Bridge:

C Bb Am F Am C F
F C Now I'm down in a slump and I'm eating alone Bb F I ruined the day with some friends on the phone C I never go out, I'm becoming a grouch Bb F I just watch the TV and I drink on the couch Am Bb But if love comes again, I'll be really surprised C I'll grab it real fast, keep it right in my sights Bb F 'Cause I think I've just made the biggest mistake of my life Bb F Well I think I've just made the biggest mistake of my life Bb F Well I think I've just made the biggest mistake of my life Final: C Bb Am F Am C F
