Slowdown

Intro: Cm Eb (2x)


Verse:
Cm                                Bb
Down and out, in Budapest and Los Angeles
                Cm                          Bb
I drank a river to forget, forget about the coming storm
Cm
The curtains are down, the lights are off
        Bb                                   Cm
And the doors are closed, I think about this life I've known
                          Bb
I hope this time, I won't let it go


Pre-Chorus:
         Ab
Will you catch me when I run
         Fm
Will you stop me when I'm done


Chorus:
         Cm
When the day is through
      Eb                   Bb        Ab
All I want to do is slow down, slow down
       Cm
When I call on you
         Eb                Bb        Ab (hold)
Will you help me to slow down, slow down


Interlude: Cm Eb Ab Eb


Verse:
  Cm                                   Bb
I walk alone through this place, can't find my way
                       Cm                          Bb
This house is just an empty space, I never felt it was my home
Cm
Where've you been, I stole, I lied
     Bb
I've hurt, I've sinned, my path has led
   Cm                                  Bb
Me here again, there's splinters in my knees and bones


Pre-Chorus:
         Ab
Will you catch me when I run
         Fm
Will you stop me when I'm done


Chorus:
         Cm
When the day is through
      Eb                   Bb        Ab
All I want to do is slow down, slow down
       Cm
When I call on you
         Eb                Bb        Ab (hold)
Will you help me to slow down, slow down

  Every time I start to break
Eb
  You pull me back and help me stay

You struggle with me

You struggle with me, You struggle with me

Will you help me to slow down, slow down
         Cm
When the day is through
      Eb                   Bb        Ab
