[Verse 1]
   D                                A
My thoughts were gnawin' at me so I tried hard not to think
  D                            G
I took a pint of whiskey and I poured it down the sink
    D                      A
I'd get my act together, I swore it to myself
  D                 C             Bm                 C
I looked up at your picture and I knocked it off the shelf


[Refrain]
     D                  C    G   C
Every little bit counts
     D                  C    G   C
Every little bit counts
     D                  C    G   C
Every little bit counts
     D                  C    G   C  D
Every little bit counts


[Chorus]
D   C           Bm      C  D    C   G  C  D
Too little too laaaaaaate, sorry
D   C           Bm      C  D    C   G  C  D
Too little too laaaaaaate for me
D   C           Bm      C  D    C   G  C  D
Too little too laaaaaaate, sorry
D   C           Bm      C  D    C   G  C  D
Too little too laaaaaaate for me

  D           C                    Bm      C
I tried and I tried and I tried to be so good (Too little too late)
  D           C          G  C
Wanted to be good, so bad
  D           C                    Bm         C                          D
I tried and I tried and I tried every trick I could (Too little too late)
C               Bm        C
Emptied out the whole damn bag
           D   C           Bm      C  D    C   G  C  D
But it was Too little too laaaaaaate, sorry
D   C           Bm      C  D    C   G  C  D
Too little too laaaaaaate for me

[Verse 2]
    D                        A
I'm no longer choking on the hair of the dog
     D                C                 Bm               C
It's been a couple of weeks now since I came out of the fog
    D                              A
The highs are slightly higher, the lows are just as low
       D   C                   Bm             C
It's a mild improvement on the average even so


[Refrain]
     D                  C    G   C
Every little bit counts
     D                  C    G   C
Every little bit counts
     D                  C    G   C
Every little bit counts
     D                  C    G   C  D
Every little bit counts


[Outro]
      D                  C
Every little bit counts (Too little too late)
          Bm                C D
Though it may not count for much
D             C
Could be long forgotten
       Bm               C
By the time you add 'em up


            D   C           Bm      C  D    C   G  C  D
Could it be too little too laaaaaaate, sorry
D   C           Bm      C  D    C   G  C  D
Too little too laaaaaaate for me
D   C           Bm      C  D    C   G  C  D
Too little too laaaaaaate, sorry
D   C           Bm      C  D    C   G  C  D
Too little too laaaaaaate for me


D   C           Bm      C  D    C   G  C  D
Too little too laaaaaaate, sorry
D   C           Bm      C  D    C   G  C  D
Too little too laaaaaaate for me
D   C           Bm      C  D    C   G  C  D
Too little too laaaaaaate, sorry
D   C           Bm      C  D    C   G  C  D
Too little too laaaaaaate for me
