Chords: D, Bm7, G, Em7
A
Early morning by the riverside,
Bm7
Saw an old man waiting for a bite,
D Bm7
We started talking and he took me back in time.
A
He said I was young, and thought I'd always be,
Bm7
Then I woke up, now I'm 83
D
There's so much I missed, oh how I wish
Bm7
I could get back all that time I wasted.
Chorus:
A
I see the tears of a young bride
Bm7 D
The morning that we had our first fight.
Bm7
I should've held her tight.
A
And on the day that my momma died,
Bm7 D
I hung up the phone and never said goodbye.
Don't let it slip on,
Bm7
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.
Bm7
Said I'm not sure if you were looking for advice.
D Bm7
There's just something about you that reminds me of me.
A
It ain't easy always looking back,
Bm7
But it seems these days that it's all I have.
D
What hurts me the most is knowing what could have been,
Bm7
And if I listen real close sometimes I can
Chorus
A
Hear the sound of my little boy
Bm7 D
Saying, daddy can you please come play with me?
Bm7
But I was too busy.
A
Then one day, my baby grew up and went to war.
Bm7 D
I never thought he'd be gone in the blink of an eye.
So don't let it slip on,
Bm7
Don't let it slip on,
A
Don't let it slip on by.
Bridge
Bm7 D
I shook the old man's hand and I thanked him.
Bm7 D
And I drove home as fast as I could go.
A
Just to let her know...
A
That I need her,
Bm7
That I love her,
D Bm7
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,
Bm7 D
And God gives us only so much precious time.
So don't let it slip on,
Bm7
Don't let it slip on,
A Bm7
Don't let it slip on by.
D Bm7
Don't let it slip on by.
