Slow Down Brother chords by Ferlin Husky

Chords with lyrics

C majorC
There's a sixty mile limit from a-coast to coast

C majorC
And a highway cop at every cedar post

      FF
You better slow down brother slow down

G7G7
Take your foot off of the gas


C majorC
When you hear that siren begin to moan

C majorC
While you're goin' fifty in a thirty mile zone

      FF
You better slow down brother slow down

G7G7             C majorC
And don't give the man any sass

    FF
If you race the other feller to the under pass

C majorC
Just kiss yourself goodbye

FF
Cause if the lord had really wanted you to go that fast

G7G7
He'd a-give you wings to fly


C majorC
When you see a man reading a highway map

C majorC
Making sixty-five with junior on his lap

    FF
Then it ain't no time to take a nap

G7G7           C majorC
Brother you better slow down

C majorC
If another car passes and he wants to race

C majorC
And he's got his arm around his sweetie's waist

      FF
You better slow down brother slow down

G7G7
No use to lean on the horn


C majorC
When you got 'er wide open at ninety-nine

C majorC
On a dead-end road without a warning sign

      FF
You better slow down brother slow down

G7G7             C majorC
Cause that's how angels are born


     FF
When you see a fellar comin' where the highways cross

C majorC
Just ease up and let him by

     FF
Don't you dare to try to beat him just to show who's boss

G7G7
Cause it might end up in a tie


C majorC
If you're hittin' on ninety and a-temptin' fate

C majorC
You will soon be knockin' on the golden gate

      FF
Cause them hills and curves are graveyard bait

G7G7           C majorC
Brother you better slow down

G7G7           C majorC
Brother you better slow down
