[Verse 1]
F     Em    Dm     C          F       C       Dm     Dm
Sugar water to the brim, they told me it’d be spring
F          Em    Dm     C     F          C    Dm     Dm
Early Sep-tember and my first glimpse of tiny wings
F        Em     Dm    C        F      C      Dm     Dm
Summer’s coming to an end, mag-nolias are in bloom
     F       C        G       Am      F      C        Dm   Dm
Well Birming-ham this time of year is giving me hope, too
F      C        Dm   Dm
Giving me hope, too

[Chorus]
      C    E    F
I’m a late bloo-mer
               (Ooh - ooh - ooh)
      C    E    F
I’m a late bloo-mer
               (Ooh - ooh - ooh)
               C    E       F
This is surely true Ooh-ooh-ooh
                   F              Fm
It doesn’t matter when you bloom
               F
It matters that you do
                         Em  Dm
                    (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
F   Em  G   G G G
Ooh-ooh-ooh

[Verse 2]
F       Em        Dm       C      F        C    Dm   Dm
Keeping track and counting down, again I’m over due
F        Em   Dm     C       F       C      Dm  Dm
Watching everyone around get there before I do
F       Em     Dm     C       F    C       Dm    Dm
Looking in the mirror at this body that betrays
    F       C       G   Am        F        C     Dm      Dm
But looking out the window, late bloomers on parade
     F        C     G    G
Late bloomers on parade
