================================================================================================== Song: Slow Down My Heartbeat Artist: Switchfoot Album: The Edge of the Earth ================================================================================================== This song is in 7/8, divided as 4+3/8 or 4+2+1/8. Also I’m not too sure of some of the lyrics, so apologies if any are wrong. There is also some muddying between A/Am and D/Dm, so if you want to be safe play A5 and D5. ================================================================================================== Intro: A F Dm A F D F G A F Dm A F D F G Verse 1:
