Chords: D, Fm7, G, Em7
D#
Early morning by the riverside,
Fm7
Saw an old man waiting for a bite,
G# Fm7
We started talking and he took me back in time.
D#
He said I was young, and thought I'd always be,
Fm7
Then I woke up, now I'm 83
G#
There's so much I missed, oh how I wish
Fm7
I could get back all that time I wasted.
Chorus:
D#
I see the tears of a young bride
Fm7 G#
The morning that we had our first fight.
Fm7
I should've held her tight.
D#
And on the day that my momma died,
Fm7 G#
I hung up the phone and never said goodbye.
Don't let it slip on,
Fm7
Don't let it slip on,
D#
Don't let it slip on by.
Verse 2
D#
Well, he looked up, tears in his eyes.
Fm7
Said I'm not sure if you were looking for advice.
G# Fm7
There's just something about you that reminds me of me.
D#
It ain't easy always looking back,
Fm7
But it seems these days that it's all I have.
G#
What hurts me the most is knowing what could have been,
Fm7
And if I listen real close sometimes I can
Chorus
D#
Hear the sound of my little boy
Fm7 G#
Saying, daddy can you please come play with me?
Fm7
But I was too busy.
D#
Then one day, my baby grew up and went to war.
Fm7 G#
I never thought he'd be gone in the blink of an eye.
So don't let it slip on,
Fm7
Don't let it slip on,
D#
Don't let it slip on by.
Bridge
Fm7 G#
I shook the old man's hand and I thanked him.
Fm7 G#
And I drove home as fast as I could go.
D#
Just to let her know...
D#
That I need her,
Fm7
That I love her,
G# Fm7
That I'm never gonna let another moment like this slip on by.
D#
Don't let it slip on by.
D#
We're only here for a little while,
Fm7 G#
And God gives us only so much precious time.
So don't let it slip on,
Fm7
Don't let it slip on,
D# Fm7
Don't let it slip on by.
G# Fm7
Don't let it slip on by.
