Slowly Oh So Slowly

C                                Am
Potential, well, you're a loaded line
C                                           F
The veil between the world and the faceless bride
G                                  Am
There's nothing yet but a bunch of white
F                                   C
Oh potential, well, you're a loaded line

C                               Am
Tomorrow, well, I will wait for you
C                                           F
Laying right here floating in this swimming pool
G                                        Am
There's a lot of things I've got left to do
F                                  C
Oh tomorrow, but I'll wait for you

Am                                   C
The days keep slipping down into the cracks
Am                                       G
It takes a while to realize where you're at
C       F
Slowly (so slowly)
C       F
Slowly (so slowly)
C                   F  G
Slowly, it's slowly ending

C                             Am
Dementia, you better treat me good
C                                    F
The human race is in its second childhood
G                        Am
I never learn but I understood
F                                C
Oh dementia, you better treat me good

C                              Am
Sometimes I need a place to go
C                                  F
Classical music plays from the radio
G                               Am
I sit real still, let my shadow grow
F                                 C
Yeah, sometimes I need a place to go

Am                                   C
My mind keeps slipping back into the past
Am                               G
I hope someday I can get it back
C       F
Slowly (so slowly)
C       F
Slowly (so slowly)
C                      F  G
Slowly, they're slowly ending

So slowly
C       F
Slowly (so slowly)
C       F
Slowly, slowly
            F  G
It's slowly ending

Am                                        C
And soon that train is going to pull away
                     Am                         C
I hear it whistling, I try to wave at a glowing face
G
They can't tell who I am
C       F
Slowly (so slowly)
C       F
Slowly (so slowly)
C                   F  G
Slowly, it's slowly ending
