Verse 1:

I’m slowing down the tune, I never liked it fast

You want to get there soon, I want to get there last
   Gm7Gm7      A7A7    Gm7Gm7       A7A7
It’s not because I’m old, It’s not the life I led
 Gm7Gm7       A7A7         G7G7  Dm7Dm7
I always liked it slow, That’s what my momma said

Dm7Dm7
I’m lacing up my shoe, But I don’t want to run

I’ll get there when I do, Don’t need no startin' gun
   Gm7Gm7       A7A7      Gm7Gm7      A7A7
It’s not because I’m old, And it’s not what dying does
  Gm7Gm7       A7A7  G7G7      Dm7Dm7
I always liked it slow, Slow is in my blood

All your moves are swift, All your turns are tight

Let me catch my breath, I thought we had all night

A augmentedA weekend on your lips, A augmentedA lifetime in your eyes
