Track 4
Capo 4
[Intro] G - C
[Verse 1]
G C Em (F#)
The lights go out, I am all alone
G C Em (F#)
All the trees outside are buried in the snow
G C Em (F#)
I spend my night dancing with my own shadow
G C Em
And it holds me and it never lets me go
[Chorus]
G C
I move slow and steady
Em Am
But I feel like a waterfall
G C
Yeah, I move slow and steady
Em Am
Past the ones that I used to know
[Verse 2]
My dear old friend, take me for a spin
Two wolves in the dark, running in the wind
I'm letting go, but I've never felt better
Passing by all the monsters in my head
[Chorus]
G C
I move slow and steady
Em Am
But I feel like a waterfall
G C
Yeah, I move slow and steady
Em Am
Past the ones that I used to know
[Tag]
G C
And I'm never ready
Em (F#)
'Cause I know, I know, I know
G C
That time won't let me
G Em Am
Show what I want to show
[Chorus]
G C
I move slow and steady
Em Am
But I feel like a waterfall
G C
Yeah, I move slow and steady
Em Am
Past the ones that I used to know
[Tag]
And I'm never ready
'Cause I know, I know, I know
That time won't let me
Show what I want to show
[Outro]
G - C - Em - Am
