Slow Down

Here's to you.

You were pink or blue, and ev'rything I wanted.

Here's to you, Barbie cars, never sleeping through from midnight 'til the morning.

Had to crawl before you walked,

before you ran.

Before I knew it, you were tryin' to free your fingers from my hand,

'cause you could do it on your own now,

(Fm6)you've somehow.

Let's Slow down.

Won't you stay here a minute more?

(Am7)I know you wanna walk through (F)the door,

but it's all too fast.

Let's make it last a little while.

(Am7)I pointed to the sky, (Fmaj7)and now you wanna fly.

(Dm7)I am your (C)biggest fan;

(F)I hope you (C)know I (Dm7)am.

But do you think you can somehow slow (C)down?

(G)Here's to you, ev'ry missing tooth and ev'ry bedtime story.

Here's to you, Barbie cars, nev light saber wars and sleeping in on Sunday.

Had to crawl before you walked,

before you ran.

Before I knew it, you were teaching me the only thing love can:

'cause hold hands through it.

When it's scary,

(Fm6)you've some me.

Let's Slow down.

Won't you stay here a minute (Am7)more?

I know you wanna walk through (F)the door,

but it's all too fast.

Let's make it last a little while.

(Am7)I pointed to the sky, (Fmaj7)and now you wanna fly.

(Dm7)I am your (C)biggest fan;

(F)I hope you (C)know I am.

(Dm7)But do you think you can somehow slow (C)down?

(G)Here's to you,

Please don't roll your eyes at (F)me.

I know I'm (Fm)embarrassing,

but someday you'll understand,

(D)you'll hold a little (Gsus)hand, ask them if (G)they can...

(G)Oh, oh.
