Intro
G Em D/F#(x 2)
verse 1
G Em D/F# G Em D/F#
It's just a stone's throw from here to eternity
G Em D/F# G Em D/F#
From the back road to where I long to be
G Em D/F# G Em D/F#
The world has changed leaving only the truth intact
G Em D/F# G Em D/F#
You think it's a game, to me it means more than that
Am D C
But I'm a late bloomer, I'm a slow learner
D Am
And I've turned the record over
D C
I'm a long player, my song is my savior
D B7
I've got to raise it up
Em D/F# C
As far as my spirit can reach
G Em D/F#(x2)
That everyone might see
verse 2
G Em D/F# G Em D/F#
Within earshot of rose colored dreamers at best
G Em D/F# G Em D/F#
I don't mean to eavesdrop, it's just part of my job I guess
G Em D/F# G Em D/F#
At one glance they don't know the truth by half
G Em D/F# G Em D/F#
How announcing your plans is a sure way to hear god laugh
Pre-Chorus
C D
Like a crab apple on the tree
C D B7
They'll find life more bitter than sweet
Am D C
But I'm a late bloomer, I'm a slow learner
D Am
And I've heard the penny drop
Am D C
I'm a small player with a tall order
D B7
To come out on top
Em D/F# C
And without selling my soul
G Em D/F# G Em D/F#
That everyone might know that I'm a late bloomer
Solo
G Em D/F#(x4)
Pre-Chorus
C D
From a turntable to a phone
C D B7
From a revolution to a ring tone
Instrumental
Am D C
But I'm a late bloomer, I'm a slow learner
D Am
And I've turned the record over
D C
I'm a long player, my song is my savior
D
Got to raise it up, ooh
Am D C
I'm a late bloomer, I'm a slow learner
D Am
And I've heard the penny drop
D C
I'm a small player with a tall order
D B7
To come out on top
Em D/F# C
And without selling my soul
G Em D/F#
That's how a flower grows
G Em D/F#
And I'm a late bloomer
G Em D/F#
I'm a late bloomer
G Em D/F# G
I'm a late bloomer
