Verse Em Bm We were born homesick, the plot was understood Em G We put away all the worry we could keep Em Bm Maybe I’m too burdened to tremble like I should Em A Maybe you’re too sick to go too deepG D Bm D G Slow down easy, I’ve been hauling a heavy soul G D Bm And don’t you know, honey it’s time G D Bm D G Slow down easy, so much trouble got a heavy toll G D Bm Take my hand, won’t you be mineVerse Em Bm Dissatisfaction, the tired familiar taste Em G Coughing up bad blood in every rhyme Em Bm Come on young savior, don’t let your fever go to waste Em A You got neon arms for new age crimesG D Bm D G Slow down easy, I’ve been hauling a heavy soul G D Bm And don’t you know, honey it’s time G D Bm D G Slow down easy, so much trouble got a heavy toll G D Bm Take my hand, won’t you be mineSolo: repeat the chords from the Chorus, there's some fingerpicking going on, best to listen to it yourself as John Moreland likes to improvise as well during live sessions.
