Clint Black – Slow As Christmas (Guitar)

          D       A
You're as slow as Christmas

      D    E        A
I was up before the dawn

D     E      A
Up so fast I missed it

       D
Or was that old saying wrong?

D               A
Every Christmas Day makes

      D              A
Every other day seem long

     D            E     A
What seemed would never get here

       D                A
Has so quickly come and gone

     F#m                E
I've heard old sayings, old cliches

    D                 A
And most of them make sense

          D            A
But we're wiser in our younger days

    B7        E
Not easily convinced

F#m               E
There's no way to look ahead

         D              A
With the wool over your eyes

       D                  A
And it seems that Santa's sled

          D    E          A
Isn't the only thing that flies

          D       A
You're as slow as Christmas

      D    E        A
I was up before the dawn

D     E      A
Up so fast I missed it

       D
Or was that old saying wrong?

D               A
Every Christmas Day makes

      D              A
Every other day seem long

     D            E     A
What seemed would never get here

       D                A
Has so quickly come and gone

      F#m           E
We're bringing in another year

      D                 A
Let's throw the old one back

        D                      A
With my new train, I'll be the engineer

    B7             E
And hurry down the track

        F#m               E
While I know that time is standing still

  D                A
I hear that old cliche

        D                 A
And I'm more convinced it does until

     D      E     A
That one December day

            D       A
When I'm as slow as Christmas

        D    E        A
I'll be up before the dawn

D       E     A
I'm not gonna miss this

       D
I know that old saying's wrong

D               A
Every Christmas Day makes

      D              A
Every other day seem long

     D            E     A
What seemed would never get here

       D                A
Has so quickly come and gone

D        A
Come and gone...
