slip sliding away chords
paul simon
G Em
slip sliding away , slip sliding away
G D C D G
you know the nearer your destination , the more you slip sliding away
Em G
whoah and i know a man , he came from my hometown
C D C C7
he wore his passion for his woman like a thorny crown
G Em
he said dolores , i live in fear
G D C D G
my love for you so overpowering , i m afraid that i will disappear
G Em
slip sliding away , slip sliding away
G D C D G
you know the nearer your destination , the more you slip sliding away
Em G
i know a woman , ( who ) became a wife
C D C C7
these are the very words she uses to describe her life
G Em
she said a good day ain t got no rain
G D
she said a bad day is when i lie in the bed
C D G
and i think of things that might have been
G Em
slip sliding away , slip sliding away
G D C D G
you know the nearer your destination , the more you slip sliding away
Em G
and i know a father who had a son
C D C C7
he longed to tell him all the reasons for the things he D done
G Em
he came a long way just to explain
G D
he kissed his boy as he lay sleeping
C D G
then he turned around and he headed home again
G Em
slip sliding away , slip sliding away
G D C D G
you know the nearer your destination , the more you slip sliding away
Em G
whoah god only knows , god makes his plan
C D C C7
the information s unavailable to the mortal man
G Em
were workin our jobs , collect our pay
G D C D G
believe were gliding down the highway , when in fact were slip sliding away
G Em
slip sliding away , slip sliding away
G D C D G
you know the nearer your destination , the more you slip sliding away 2
