I shoulda learned better, old enough to know

Slippin' and slidin', feelin' low

Yeah it's a setback at best, a shameful show, baby
A B7 E E7
Slippin' and slidin', feelin' low

A E
Now I'm wakin' up feelin' bad again
A B7 E E7
I'm losin' patience with my only friend
A B7 E C#7
Why do I try my luck, I should never touch this stuff
A
But it shouldn't make any difference anymore,
B7
As long as I keep up appearances, Lord

I've been working too hard, I need some time at home, baby

Darlin' I just need a little comfortin'
A B7 E C#m E7
I ain't seen the sunrise since I don't know when, baby
A B7 E C#7
Days gettin' longer, nights gettin' cold
A B7 G#7
Slippin' and slidin', feelin' low, mama
A B7
Slippin' and slidin'
A B7
Peekin' and hidin'

Slippin' and slidin', feelin' low
