Slip Sliding Away

Tom: C

{start_of_chorus}
Slip sliding a[C]way, slip sliding[Am] away
You know the n[C]earer your destin[G]ation, the [F]more you slip sl[G]iding a[C]way
{end_of_chorus}
Whoah and I know a [Am]man, he came from my h[C]ometown
He wore his p[F]assion for his woman like a t[Fm]horny crown
He said D[C]olores, I live in [Am]fear
My love for y[C]ou's so overpow[G]ering, I'm af[F]raid that [G]I will dis[C]appear
(Chorus)
I know a [Am]woman, (who) became a [C]wife
These are the [F]very words she uses to [Fm]describe her life
She said a [C]good day ain't got no [Am]rain
She said a [C]bad day is when I lie[G] in the bed
And I [F]think of things that[G] might have [C]been
(Chorus)
And I know a [Am]father who had a [C]son
He longed to [F]tell him all the reasons for the [Fm]things he'd done
He came a [C]long way just to ex[Am]plain
He kissed his [C]boy as he lay [G]sleeping
Then he [F]turned around and he [G]headed home a[C]gain
(Chorus)
Whoah God only [Am]knows, God makes his [C]plan
The infor[F]mation's unavailable to the [Fm]mortal man
We're worki[C]n' our jobs, collect our [Am]pay
Believe we're [C]gliding down the [G]highway, when in [F]fact we're s[G]lip sliding a[C]way
(Chorus repeats 2x)
