Chords

[Intro] C G Dm D [spoken]
 Dm
Won't break my heart, won't hope to die

               C
If before Lexington I could slow down

              G
They say a chariot's waiting when you get cut loose

      D
The place starts swinging when it's me on the noose
[spoken]
  Dm
Mother do you think that your children cry

              C
'Cause they wanna shake your chain?

    G
I walked miles today, one for every year of my life

  D
In the stinking fucking rain
[Chorus]
C    G               D
Ooo-ooo, just to slow down

                  C
So I could slow down

            G             Dm
So I could slow down, yeah

 D                       C
Work for me, luck, just one last time

  G                       D
Spare me a chance, I've wasted mine

  D                            C
Shine on me, light, don't you know I would

  G                        D
Reach for you there if I only I could?

 C
If I could slow down

 G                D
If I could slow down

 C
If I could slow down

 G               Dm
Just slow down

 D
I don't mind being stoned, they say Jesus was

 C
And I like being alone, and I can take living low

 G
Forgive my being cruel if ever I was

       D
Say a word for me too when I'm under the gun

 D
Wouldn't break my heart

                 C
If I could slow down

                      G
Let the place start swinging

                    Dm
There's a chariot waiting

 D
Wouldn't break my heart

                 C
If I could slow down

                      G
Let the place start swinging

                    Dm
There's a chariot waiting

  D
Wouldn't break my heart...
C G
