Intro: G Em (x2)    
   
                  G                      Em    
Slip slidin' away, slip slidin' away.    
                        G                      D    
You know the nearer your destination,    
    C                       D          G    
the more you're slip slidin' away.    

   
            Em                               G    
I know a man, he came from my home town.    
                   Em                 D    
He wore his passion for his woman like     
   C                   C7   
a thorny crown.    
              G                     Em    
He said, 'Delores, I live in fear.    
                 G                D    
My love for you is so overpowering,    
     C            D             G    
I'm afraid that I will disappear.'    

Chorus:    

   
              Em                     G    
I know a woman, became a wife.    
                     Em                  D             
These are the very words she uses to    
  C                    C7   
describe her life.    
                   G                            Em    
She said, 'A good day 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: Add: F C7 G    

   
                  Em  D                      G    
And I know a fa..ther, who had a son.    
                    C                  D    
He longed to tell him all the reasons for the    
C                       C7   
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 headed home again.    

Chorus:Add: F C G (2x)   

   
              Em                             G    
God only knows. God makes his plan.    
             Em             D                   C              C7   
The information's unavailable to the mortal man.    
                   G                       Em    
We work our jobs. Collect our pay...    
                   G                       D    
believe we're gliding down the highway    
            C                    D       G    
when in fact, we're slip slidin' away.    


Chorus: Em G (x2)
