half step down
Chords: D, G#m7, G, Em7
F#
Early morning by the riverside,
G#m7
Saw an old man waiting for a bite,
B G#m7
We started talking and he took me back in time.
F#
He said I was young, and thought I'd always be,
G#m7
Then I woke up, now I'm 83
B
There's so much I missed, oh how I wish
G#m7
I could get back all that time I wasted.
Chorus:
F#
I see the tears of a young bride
G#m7 B
The morning that we had our first fight.
G#m7
I should've held her tight.
F#
And on the day that my momma died,
G#m7 B
I hung up the phone and never said goodbye.
Don't let it slip on,
G#m7
Don't let it slip on,
F#
Don't let it slip on by.
Verse 2
F#
Well, he looked up, tears in his eyes.
G#m7
Said I'm not sure if you were looking for advice.
B G#m7
There's just something about you that reminds me of me.
F#
It ain't easy always looking back,
G#m7
But it seems these days that it's all I have.
B
What hurts me the most is knowing what could have been,
G#m7
And if I listen real close sometimes I can
Chorus
F#
Hear the sound of my little boy
G#m7 B
Saying, daddy can you please come play with me?
G#m7
But I was too busy.
F#
Then one day, my baby grew up and went to war.
G#m7 B
I never thought he'd be gone in the blink of an eye.
So don't let it slip on,
G#m7
Don't let it slip on,
F#
Don't let it slip on by.
Bridge
G#m7 B
I shook the old man's hand and I thanked him.
G#m7 B
And I drove home as fast as I could go.
F#
Just to let her know...
F#
That I need her,
G#m7
That I love her,
B G#m7
That I'm never gonna let another moment like this slip on by.
F#
Don't let it slip on by.
F#
We're only here for a little while,
G#m7 B
And God gives us only so much precious time.
So don't let it slip on,
G#m7
Don't let it slip on,
F# G#m7
Don't let it slip on by.
B G#m7
Don't let it slip on by.
