Leonard Cohen - Slow

^Dm7I’m slowing down the tune, I never liked it fast You want to get there soon, I want to get there last It’s n^Gm7ot because I’m ^A7old, It’s ^Gm7not the life I l^A7ed I ^Gm7always liked it s^A7low, That’s what my ^G7momma ^Dm7said

^Dm7I’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 It’s n^Gm7ot because I’m o^A7ld, And it’s n^Gm7ot what dying ^A7does I a^Gm7lways liked it s^A7low, ^G7Slow is in my ^Dm7blood

I a^Bblways liked it ^Fslow, I ^Cnever liked it ^Ffast With y^Bbou it’s got to g^Fo, With ^Cme it’s got to ^Alast It’s ^Gm7not because I’m ^A7old, It’s ^Gm7not because I’m ^A7dead I a^Gm7lways liked it s^A7low, That’s what my ^G7momma ^Dm7said

^Dm7All your moves are swift, All your turns are tight Let me catch my breath, I thought we had all night I l^Gm7ike to take my t^A7ime, I like to ^Gm7linger as it ^A7flies A w^Gm7eekend on your ^A7lips, A l^G7ifetime in your ^Dm7eyes

I al^Bbways liked it ^Fslow, I ^Cnever liked it ^Ffast With ^Bbyou it’s got to go^F, With m^Ce it’s got to last^A It’s ^Gm7not because I’m o^A7ld, It’s n^Gm7ot the life I ^A7led I ^Gm7always liked it ^A7slow, That’s what my ^G7momma ^Dm7said

I’m s^Bblowing down the t^Fune, I n^Cever liked it f^Fast You w^Bbant to get there ^Fsoon, I ^Cwant to get there l^Aast So, b^Gm7aby, let me ^A7go, You’re ^Gm7wanted back in ^A7town In ^Gm7case they want to k^A7now, I’m just ^G7trying to slow it ^Dm7down
