[Intro] Am C Em G Am [Chorus]
          C                    Em
I woke up this mornin' feelin' low

G                           Am
And I had to let go of my ego....

              C                    Em
I can't stand my reflection no more.....

G                                    Am
And I don't know why I can't take it slow (Slo-oh-oh-oh-oh)

C                                   Em
I don't know why, I don't know why (Slo-oh-oh-oh-oh)

G                                Am
I don't know why I can't take it slow (Slo-oh-oh-oh-oh)

G
I don't know why I can't take it slow
[Verse]
Am
Sometimes it feels too good to be true

        C
I don't know what else to do but to get up and move

         Em
Build an enterprise, change my children's lives

        G
The way I feel inside, my time is minimized

      Am
I got a plan devised, problems I'ma improvise

        C
I can't lose my temper got too much to jeopardize

          Em
You can't trust no one of these days they gon' testify

         G
I battle with myself daily, I'm a Gemini

    Am
Two sides to every story so I empathize

       C
I done came a long way since I went inside

         Em
Stand at the finish line, can I really finish mine

                 G
I don't hear 'em when the criticize or they tell them lies

Am
Give 'em time, ha ha
[Chorus]
          C                    Em

G
I don't know why I can't take it slow
[Verse]
         Am
From the roads I've been travelin' to the demons I'm battlein'

     C
Tell the truth, sometimes I feel like I'm unravelin'

          Em
I've been havin' my head down and facin' these challenges

        G
I don't know, I feel like I've been wastin' my talent

          Am
I've been movin' in hate, I ain't been movin' in love

          C
You gotta be the first to admit it when you fuckin' up

          Em
I've been tryin' to get away, I've been focused on the life

    G
And I learned that real change doesn't happen over night

     Am
Tell my girl to blow 'em twice, before I roll the dice

     C
This is our last chance, it's the bottom of the ninth

      Em
I can feel the wind comin', put the bottles on the ice

     G
It's about fuckin' time, we've been losin' all our life

Am
Cheers to change
[Chorus]
          C                    Em

And I had to let go of my ego....

I can't stand my reflection no more.....

I don't know why I can't take it slow
