[VERSE 1]
D
I'm slowing down the tune, I never liked it fast
You want to get there soon, I want to get there last
A Gm A Gm
It's not because I'm old, It's not the life I led
A Gm G F D
I always liked it slow, That's what my momma said
D
I'm lacing up my shoe, But I don't want to run
I'll get there when I do, Don't need no startin' gun
A Gm A Gm
It's not because I'm old, And it's not what dying does
A Gm G F D
I always liked it slow, Slow is in my blood
[CHORUS 1]
Bb F C F
I always liked it slow, I never liked it fast
Bb F C A
With you it's got to go, With me it's got to last
Gm A Gm A
It's not because I'm old, It's not because I'm dead
Gm A G F D
I always liked it slow, That's what my momma said
6 bars of D - improv if you can!
