Tom: Am
C Dm
I take it slow
G C Csus4
And watch the flowers in my garden grow
C Dm
The seasons go and they come back again
G C Csus4
And the trees act like they're putting on a show
[Verse 2]
F
I don't hide that I am tired
G C
I don't have time to be a martyr anymore
F
All these lines that gave me smiles
G
Travelled time and covered miles
C Csus4
From which I come
[Chorus]
Am
And I've come much farther
G C Csus4
Than I have to go
Am
And I ran for so long
G C Dm F
Now I take it slow, I take it slow
Dm F
Because I know, I take it slow
G
So I have more time left with you
C
To hold
[Verse 3]
C Dm G
I fill my soul with southern ice tea
C Csus4
Made just like from home
Dm
My hands still hold the things
Dm
I can't let go
G
But there's room to grow
C Csus4
When you're growing old, I'm told
[Chorus]
Am
And I've come much farther
G C Csus4
Than I have to go
Am
And I ran for so long
G C Dm F
Now I take it slow, I take it slow
Dm F
Because I know, I take it slow
G
So I have more time left with you
[Bridge]
F C
Ooooo
G
And I still need my mother
F C
Ooooo
G
And I still miss my father
F G Am
Ooooo
G F
I'll never have the answers
Fm*
But I'll have flowers
[Chorus]
Am*
And I've come much farther
G* C* Csus4*
Than I have to go
Am*
And I ran for so long
G* C* Dm* F*
Now I take it slow, I take it slow
Dm* F*
Because I know, I take it slow
G* C
So I have more time left with you
