Chords with lyrics

🎸 Intro:

C majorC G+G DmDm D MajorD

spoken:
 DmDm
Won't break my heart, won't hope to die
        C majorC
If before Lexington I could slow down
       G+G
They say a chariot's waiting when you get loose
   D MajorD
The place starts swinging when it's me on the noose

spoken:
 DmDm
Mother do you think that your children cry
       C majorC
'Cause they wanna shake your chain?
  G+G
I walked miles today, one for every year of my life
 D MajorD
In the stinking fucking rain

🎸 Chorus:
C majorC  G+G        D MajorD
Ooo-ooo, just to slow down
         C majorC
So I could slow down
      G+G       DmDm
So I could slow down, yeah

 D MajorD            C majorC
Work for me, luck, just one last time
 G+G            D MajorD
Spare me a chance, I've wasted mine
 D MajorD              C majorC
Shine on me, light, don't you know I would
 G+G            D MajorD
Reach for you there if I only I could?

 C majorC
If I could slow down
 G+G        D MajorD
If I could slow down
 C majorC
If I could slow down
 G+G        DmDm
Just slow down

 D MajorD
I don't mind being stoned, they say Jesus was
 C majorC
And I like being alone, and I can take living low
 G+G
Forgive my being cruel if ever I was
    D MajorD
Say a word for me too when I'm under the gun

 D MajorD
Wouldn't break my heart
         C majorC
If I could slow down
           G+G
Let the place start swinging
          DmDm
There's a chariot waiting

 D MajorD
Wouldn't break my heart
         C majorC
If I could slow down
           G+G
Let the place start swinging
          DmDm
There's a chariot waiting

 D MajorD
Wouldn't break my heart

C majorC  G+G
