[Intro]
Dm7 Dm7 Dm7 Dm7
[Verse 1]
Dm7
I’m slowing down the tune, I never liked it fast
You want to get there soon, I want to get there last
      Gm7            A7        Gm7             A7
It’s not because I’m old, It’s not the life I led
  Gm7              A7                  G7    Dm7
I always liked it slow, That’s what my momma said
Dm7
I’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
      Gm7             A7            Gm7           A7
It’s not because I’m old, And it’s not what dying does
   Gm7             A7   G7            Dm7
I always liked it slow, Slow is in my blood
[Chorus 1]
   Bb             F       C              F
I always liked it slow, I never liked it fast
      Bb              F       C              A
With you it’s got to go, With me it’s got to last
     Gm7             A7        Gm7             A7
It’s not because I’m old, It’s not because I’m dead
   Gm7             A7                  G7    Dm7
I always liked it slow, That’s what my momma said
[Instrumental]
Dm7 Dm7 Dm7 Dm7
[Verse 2]
Dm7
All your moves are swift, All your turns are tight
Let me catch my breath, I thought we had all night
   Gm7             A7             Gm7          A7
I like to take my time, I like to linger as it flies
   Gm7            A7       G7              Dm7
A weekend on your lips, A lifetime in your eyes
[Chorus 2]
    Bb            F       C              F
I always liked it slow, I never liked it fast
     Bb                F       C                 A
With you it’s got to go, With me it’s got to last
     Gm7              A7        Gm7           A7
It’s not because I’m old, It’s not the life I led
  Gm7             A7                   G7    Dm7
I always liked it slow, That’s what my momma said
[Chorus 3]
     Bb               F       C              F
I’m slowing down the tune, I never liked it fast
     Bb               F       C                  A
You want to get there soon, I want to get there last
     Gm7         A7         Gm7            A7
So, baby, let me go, You’re wanted back in town
   Gm7                A7            G7                Dm7
In case they want to know, I’m just trying to slow it down
