Corrinne May - Slow Down 
Capo 2
G           D/#F
16 hour workday just to provide
Em7          Em7/D
Everything for his little tyke
   Cadd9      G 
No time to sing a lullaby
  A7sus4          D
or give him a piggyback ride
G          D/#F 
TV babysitter, toys are a bribe
     Em7          
as he speeds out the doorway
      Em7/D         F
and the car leaves the driveway
          Em7   Am7 
The boy runs after his father
      Dm7          Dm7/E
but his steps are too small
   F            Em7    
He stretches out his hands to reach him
     Am7      Dsus4 D
as he tumbles and falls.
Bbsus2    Cm      Bb/D  Ebm7
Slow down, I can’t keep up with you
             F            Bb  Cm Bb/D
* You’re getting a little too quick for me to fol low
Ebm7 F        Gm    Gm/F   #G
Slow  down, you’re getting away from me
    Cm           Bb/D   Ebm7
and I don’t know how to slow you down
G            D/#F
60 years together weathering the times 
   Em7           Em7/D
The good, the bad, the sweetest sighs 
        Cadd9       G 
Watching children of their children smile
      A7sus4               D
as they did when they walked down the aisle 
G                      D/#F
Walking canes and wheelchairs slowly wind
Em7          Em7/D      F
Twirling the years, curling their faces
          Em7    Am7
But now he’s stumbling faster
  Dm7           Dm7/E
towards that finish line
    F            Em7 
She stretches out her hands to hold him
     Am7     Dsus4 D
as he closes his eyes
Bbsus2    Cm      Bb/D  Ebm7
Slow down, I can’t keep up with you *
