Capo First Fret
[Chorus]
G
Slip slidin' away
Em
Slip slidin' away
G D
You know the nearer your destination
C D G
The more you're slip slidin' away
[Verse 1]
Em
I know a man
G
He came from my home town
C D
He wore his passion for his woman
C C7
Like a thorny crown
G
He said Delores
Em
I live in fear
G D
My love for you's so overpowering
C D G
I'm afraid that I will disappear
[Chorus]
G
Slip slidin' away
Em
Slip slidin' away
G D
You know the nearer your destination
C D G
The more you're slip slidin' away
[Verse 2]
Em
I know a woman
G
Became a wife
C D
These are the very words she uses
C C7
To describe her life
G
She said a good day
Em
Ain't got no rain
G D
She said a bad day's when I lie in bed
C D G
And think of things that might have been
[Chorus]

Slip slidin' away

You know the nearer your destination
C D G
The more you're slip slidin' away

And I know a fa-ather

Who had a son
C D C C7

Just to explain

The more you're slip slidin' away

God only knows

God makes his plan

The information's unavailable
C C7
To the mortal man

We work our jobs
Em
Collect our pay

Believe we're gliding down the highway
C G
When in fact we're slip slidin' away
[Chorus x 2]
G
Slip slidin' away
Em
Slip slidin' away
G D
You know the nearer your destination

The more you're slip slidin' away

Slip slidin' away

Slip slidin' away
G D
You know the nearer your destination
C D G
The more you're slip slidin' away
