F                       A#  C
They say wait a little longer
F                         A#   C
And the times are gonna change
F                     A#    C
They say wait until tomorrow
F                    A#    C
Yesterday is always strange

They say wait until you're older (Wait)
And you will understand (Wait)
They say the generation's coming
But I don't think they understand that
I am not a patient man

Chorus:
F  A#
Hey
C        F  A#
I can't wait
C        F   A#
I can't wait
     C           F  A#
Too little, too late
     C           F  A# C
Too little, too late

(Wait)
They say wait until you're ready (Wait)
Wait until your number's called (Wait)
They say "Wait, all we need is love"
But darling, California's burning
New Orleans is waiting for the flood

Chorus:
Hey (wait, wait, wait, wait, wait)
I can't wait (wait, wait, wait, wait, wait)
I can't wait (wait, wait, wait, wait)
Too little, too late (late, late, late, late)
They think they can take us down
(Too little, too late, late, late, late, late)
I can't wait (wait, wait, wait, wait, wait)
I can't wait (wait, wait, wait, wait)
Too little, too late (late, late, late, late)
It's too little, too late

This is ain't summer of love
This is the summer of (aaaah)
Sing
Racists running, cities burning
Children show you what they're learning
Whole world finally fade away
We're called Generation A

Chorus:
Hey (hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
I can't wait (wait, wait, wait, wait, wait)
I can't wait (woo) (wait, wait, wait, wait)
It's too little, too late (late, late, late, late)
They think they can take us
(Too little, too late, late, late, late, late, late)
I can't wait (wait, wait, wait, wait, wait)
I can't wait (wait, wait, wait, wait)
It's too little, too late (late, late, late, late)
I think you got it
It's too little, too late (late, late, late, late)
Too little, too late (late, late, late, late)
Too little, too late
