I'm slo[Dm]wing down the tune, I never liked it fast
You [(Dm)]wanna get there soon, I wanna get there last
It's [Gm]not because I'm [A7]old, it's not th[Gm]e life I've led[A7]
I a[Gm]lways liked it slow, t[A7]hat's what my mama s[/G]aid[/F][Dm]
I'm lacing up my shoe, but I don't want to run
I'll get there when I do; don't need no starting gun
It's not because I'm old and it's not what dying does
I always liked it slow, slow is in my blood
I a[Bb]lways like it slow, I [F]never li[C]ked it fast[F]
With [Bb]you it's got to [F]go, with me it[C]'s got to last[A7]
It's [Gm]not because I'm o[A7]ld, it's not [Gm]because I'm dead[A7]
I al[Gm]ways liked it slow, [A7]that's what my mama[/G] said[/F][Dm]
All your moves are swift, all your turns are tight
Let me catch my breath, I thought we had all night
I like to take my time, I like to linger as it flies
A weekend on your lips, a lifetime in your eyes
I always like it slow, I never liked it fast
With you it's got to go, with me it's got to last
It's not because I'm old, it's not the life I've led
I always liked it slow, that's what my mama said
I'm slowing down the tune, I've never liked it fast
You wanna get there soon, I wanna get there last
So baby let me go, you're wanted back in town
In case they wanna know I'm just tryin' to it slow down
