[Intro]

Am C Em G
Am

[Chorus]

C Em
I woke up this mornin’ feelin’ low
G Am
And I had to let go of my ego….
C Em
I can’t stand my reflection no more…..
G Am
And I don’t know why I can’t take it slow (Slo-oh-oh-oh-oh)
C Em
I don’t know why, I don’t know why (Slo-oh-oh-oh-oh)
G Am
I don’t know why I can’t take it slow (Slo-oh-oh-oh-oh)
C Em
I don’t know why, I don’t know why (Slo-oh-oh-oh-oh)
G
I don’t know why I can’t take it slow

[Verse]

Am
Sometimes it feels too good to be true
C
I don’t know what else to do but to get up and move
Em
Build an enterprise, change my children’s lives
G
The way I feel inside, my time is minimized
Am
I got a plan devised, problems I’ma improvise
C
I can’t lose my temper got too much to jeopardize
Em
You can’t trust no one of these days they gon’ testify
G
I battle with myself daily, I’m a Gemini
Am
Two sides to every story so I empathize
C
I done came a long way since I went inside
Em
Stand at the finish line, can I really finish mine
G
I don’t hear ‘em when the criticize or they tell them lies
Am
Give ‘em time, ha ha

[Chorus]

C Em
I woke up this mornin’ feelin’ low
G Am
And I had to let go of my ego…..
C Em
I can’t stand my reflection no more……
G Am
And I don’t know why I can’t take it slow (Slo-oh-oh-oh-oh)
C Em
I don’t know why, I don’t know why (Slo-oh-oh-oh-oh)
G Am
I don’t know why I can’t take it slow (Slo-oh-oh-oh-oh)
C Em
I don’t know why, I don’t know why (Slo-oh-oh-oh-oh)
G
I don’t know why I can’t take it slow

[Verse]

Am
From the roads I’ve been travelin’ to the demons I’m battlein’
C
Tell the truth, sometimes I feel like I’m unravelin’
Em
I’ve been havin’ my head down and facin’ these challenges
G
I don’t know, I feel like I’ve been wastin’ my talent
Am
I’ve been movin’ in hate, I ain’t been movin’ in love
C
You gotta be the first to admit it when you fuckin’ up
Em
I’ve been tryin’ to get away, I’ve been focused on the life
G
And I learned that real change doesn’t happen over night
Am
Tell my girl to blow ‘em twice, before I roll the dice
C
This is our last chance, it’s the bottom of the ninth
Em
I can feel the wind comin’, put the bottles on the ice
G
It’s about fuckin’ time, we’ve been losin’ all our life
Am
Cheers to change

[Chorus]

C Em
I woke up this mornin’ feelin’ low

C Em
I can’t stand my reflection no more…..
G Am
And I don’t know why I can’t take it slow (Slo-oh-oh-oh-oh)
C Em
I don’t know why, I don’t know why (Slo-oh-oh-oh-oh)
G Am
I don’t know why I can’t take it slow (Slo-oh-oh-oh-oh)
C Em
I don’t know why, I don’t know why (Slo-oh-oh-oh-oh)
G
I don’t know why I can’t take it slow
