Slip Sliding Away chords
Paul Simon 

G                                Em
Slip sliding away, slip sliding away
             G                D           C             D        G
You know the nearer your destination, the more you slip sliding away

                   Em                       G
Whoah and I know a man, he came from my hometown
            C               D            C          C7
He wore his passion for his woman like a thorny crown
          G                Em
He said Dolores, I live in fear
            G          D              C          D           G
My love for you so overpowering, I m afraid that I will disappear

              G                  Em
Slip sliding away, slip sliding away
             G                D           C             D        G
You know the nearer your destination, the more you slip sliding away

          Em                   G
I know a woman, (who) became a wife
              C              D          C            C7
These are the very words she uses to describe her life
           G                     Em
She said a good day ain t got no rain
           G                 D
She said a bad day is when I lie in the bed
      C        D                      G
And I think of things that might have been

              G                  Em
Slip sliding away, slip sliding away
             G                D           C             D        G
You know the nearer your destination, the more you slip sliding away

             Em               G
And I know a father who had a son
             C                D               C               C7
He longed to tell him all the reasons for the things he d done
          G                  Em
He came a long way just to explain
              G             D
He kissed his boy as he lay sleeping
        C                    D            G
Then he turned around and he headed home again

              G                  Em
Slip sliding away, slip sliding away
             G                D           C             D        G
You know the nearer your destination, the more you slip sliding away

               Em                   G
Whoah God only knows, God makes his plan
    C               D                C         C7
The information s unavailable to the mortal man
                G                 Em
Were workin our jobs, collect our pay
             G                D                C              D        G
Believe were gliding down the highway, when in fact were slip sliding away

              G                  Em
Slip sliding away, slip sliding away
             G                D           C             D        G
You know the nearer your destination, the more you slip sliding away 2x
