[Verse]
G
I wake up
C       
Start the coffee
Em                  C
Though you won't be up for hours
G                 C
Fetch the morning paper
         Em                     C
Lay them both out like they're hearts and flowers
    Bm                C
And when you finish what I made you
Em             C
Read the articles I saved you
Bm                  C
I tell you that I couldn't sleep
Em                C
Wondering if you still love me

[Chorus]
     G
Slow down
C
Slow down
      Em
Slow down
    C
So we can speed up
G
Slow down
C
Slow down
Em C  G    C  Em  C
Slow down

[Verse]
G             C
On my tiptoes round the house
   Em               C
I tried my best to not disturb you
G           C
Quiet as a drunken mouse
   Em              C
Amuse myself until I have heard you
      Bm           C
Then listen as ya brush your teeth
Em                 C
Wash your face turn on the TV
Bm               C
Till I think the moment's right
   Em             C
To try and talk about last night

[Chorus]
     G
Slow down
C
Slow down
      Em
Slow down
    C
So we can speed up
G
Slow down
C
Slow down
Em C  G    C  
Slow down
Em C  G    C  Em  C
Slow down

[Bridge]
Am             D
I just need my pics of you
    Bm                C
It fills the holes inside of me
       Am                D
'cause whiskey, pot and pills don't make me
Bm             C
Feel so high, feel so free

[Verse]
G               C
Try to make it through the day
Em             C
Chasin all the same old ghosts
G               C
Has my fear become a drag 'cause
Em               C
That's the thing I fear the most
    Bm     
You run your fingers
C
Through my hair
   Em                  C
A thousand things that show you care
      Bm          C
But sadness is my worst addiction
    Em                  C
My head is filled with fact less fiction

[Chorus]
     G
Slow down
C
Slow down
      Em
Slow down
    C
So we can speed up
G
Slow down
C
Slow down
Em C  G    C  
Slow down

Slow down
