Verse:
          C
Iʼd never met you, but I wanted

To invite you to the party
         G
Then you walked in with those green eyes

Never stolen by nobody
         C
And they flicker to the future

For a moment, I could picture
         G
Then you touch me, and I come back

And weʼre talking on the staircase
           C
ʼBout your big dreams on the big screens
                                          G
Out of Georgia, now youʼre lonely in this city

Lyinʼ with me

And youʼre scared itʼs movinʼ quickly
               C
Oh, now youʼre crying, youʼre in pieces
                                          G
ʼCause the only love youʼve ever known is Jesus

I can feel it

Oh, I hate that Iʼm the reason that youʼre

Pre-chorus:
Em   D   G    D     C
In   your   head right now
           Em   D G D     C
While your world is spinning out

Chorus:
     C
So, slow it down

Take a moment now
          G
Weʼre too young to drown

Deep in dirty waters
        C
Full of hopeless doubt

Let me pull you out
       G
Let me hold you now

Let me slow it down

Verse:
         C
Ainʼt it funny how it changes

How the future rearranges?
      G
I get nervous, oh Iʼm anxious

Maybe loving you is dangerous
        C
I could lose you like the others
                                     G
Only girl thatʼs never left me is my mother

Oh, I love her

And I know youʼll probably hate it, but Iʼm

Pre-chorus:
Em   D   G  D     C
In   my   head right now

Chorus:
     C
So, slow it down

Take a moment now
          G
Weʼre too young to drown

Deep in dirty waters
        C
Full of hopeless doubt

Let me pull you out
       G
Let me hold you now

Let me— (Slow it down)

Outro:
        C
Slow it down
                    Am               G
When youʼre on the ground and youʼre crying (Slow it down)

Iʼm trying (Slow it down)
    C
To slow it down
             Am                    G  D
When youʼre spinning round in your head
Em  D G   D   C
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
     Em   D G  D   C
Iʼll help you slow it down
