G Em
Slip slidin' away, slip slidin' away,
G D C D G
you know the nearer your destination the more you're sleep slidin'away
Em7 G6
I know a man, he came from my home town
C D C C7 G Em7
he wore his passion for his woman like a thorny crown he said Delores I live in fear
G D C D G
my love for you's so overpowering I'm afraid that I will disappear
G Em
Slip slidin' away, slip slidin' away,
G D C D G
you know the nearer your destination the more you're sleep slidin'away
Em7 G6 C C7
I know a woman became a wife these are the very words she uses to describe her life
G Em7
she said a good day ain't got no rain
G D C D G
she said a bad day's when I be in bed and think of things that might have been
G Em
Slip slidin' away, slip slidin' away,
G D C D G
you know the nearer your destination the more you're sleep slidin'away
Em7 G6
And I know a father who had a son
C D C C7
he longed to tell him all the resaons for the things he'd done
G Em7
he came a long way just to explain
G D C D G
he kissed his boy as he lay sleeping then he turned around and he headed home again
G Em
Slip slidin' away, slip slidin' away
G D C D G
you know the nearer your destination the more you're sleep slidin'away
Em7 G6
God only knows God makes his plan
C D C C7 G Em
the information's unavalable to the mortal man we works our jobs collect our pay
C D C G
believe we're giding down the highway when in fact we're slip slidin' away
G Em
Slip slidin' away, slip slidin' away,
G D C D G
you know the nearer your destination the more you're sleep slidin'away
