Verse 1
[Am]Be careful little eyes what you [C]see
It's the [G]second glance that ties your hands
As [Dm]darkness pulls the strings
[Am]Be careful little feet where you [C]go
For it's the [G]little feet behind you
That are [Dm]sure to follow [Am]
Chorus
It's a [Am]slow fade
When you [G]give yourself away
It's a [Dm]slow fade
When [F]black and white have turned to grey
And [Am]thoughts invade, [G]choices made
A [C]price will be paid
When you [F]give yourself away
[Dm]People never crumble in a [G]day
It's a [Am]slow [C]fade
It's a [Dm]slow [F]fade
Verse 2
[Am]Be careful little ears what you [C]hear
When [G]flattery leads to compromise
The [Dm]end is always near
[Am]Be careful little lips what you [C]say
For [G]empty words and promises
Lead [Dm]broken hearts astray [Am]
Bridge
The [Dm]journey from your mind to your [F]hands
Is shorter than you're [Am]think[G]ing
Be [Dm]careful if you think you [F]stand
You just might be [C]sink[F]ing
Chorus
And it's a s[Am]low fade
When you g[G]ive yourself away
It's a s[Dm]low fade
When [F]black and white have turned to grey
And [Am]thoughts invade, [G]choices made
A [C]price will be paid
When you [F]give yourself away
[Dm]People never crumble in a [G]day (slow fade)
[Dm]Daddies never crumble in a [G]day (slow fade)
[Dm]Families never crumble in a [G]day
Little girl's voice
Oh, [Am]be careful little eyes what you [C]see
Oh, [G]be careful little eyes what you [Dm]see
For the [Am]Father up above is [G]looking down in love
Oh, [Dm]be careful little eyes what you [Am]see
[Am]Be careful little eyes what you [C]see
It's the [G]second glance that ties your hands
As [Dm]darkness pulls the strings
[Am]Be careful little feet where you [C]go
For it's the [G]little feet behind you
That are [Dm]sure to follow [Am]
Chorus
It's a [Am]slow fade
When you [G]give yourself away
It's a [Dm]slow fade
When [F]black and white have turned to grey

When you [F]give yourself away
[Dm]People never crumble in a [G]day
It's a [Am]slow [C]fade
