half step down
Chords: D, Cm7, G, Em7
A#
Early morning by the riverside,
Cm7
Saw an old man waiting for a bite,
D# Cm7
We started talking and he took me back in time.
A#
He said I was young, and thought I'd always be,
Cm7
Then I woke up, now I'm 83
D#
There's so much I missed, oh how I wish
Cm7
I could get back all that time I wasted.
Chorus:
A#
I see the tears of a young bride
Cm7 D#
The morning that we had our first fight.
Cm7
I should've held her tight.
A#
And on the day that my momma died,
Cm7 D#
I hung up the phone and never said goodbye.
Don't let it slip on,
Cm7
Don't let it slip on,
A#
Don't let it slip on by.
Verse 2
A#
Well, he looked up, tears in his eyes.
Cm7
Said I'm not sure if you were looking for advice.
D# Cm7
There's just something about you that reminds me of me.
A#
It ain't easy always looking back,
Cm7
But it seems these days that it's all I have.
D#
What hurts me the most is knowing what could have been,
Cm7
And if I listen real close sometimes I can
Chorus
A#
Hear the sound of my little boy
Cm7 D#
Saying, daddy can you please come play with me?
Cm7
But I was too busy.
A#
Then one day, my baby grew up and went to war.
Cm7 D#
I never thought he'd be gone in the blink of an eye.
So don't let it slip on,
Cm7
Don't let it slip on,
A#
Don't let it slip on by.
Bridge
Cm7 D#
I shook the old man's hand and I thanked him.
Cm7 D#
And I drove home as fast as I could go.
A#
Just to let her know...
A#
That I need her,
Cm7
That I love her,
D# Cm7
That I'm never gonna let another moment like this slip on by.
A#
Don't let it slip on by.
A#
We're only here for a little while,
Cm7 D#
And God gives us only so much precious time.
So don't let it slip on,
Cm7
Don't let it slip on,
A# Cm7
Don't let it slip on by.
D# Cm7
Don't let it slip on by.
