Taking it Slow

TAKING IT SLOW
Music & lyrics by Leah Finkelstein

INTRO: ¾ time, x=beat [E x x] [E x x] [E x x] [A A A] repeat

VERSE I: (E A, same pattern as intro)
NC E A A A E A A A E A A A E
Softly spoken, I tried to retain -- a--ll that's given, though some got away
~E B A E B A E, E, E, A A A, E, E, E
Back to the time when I said good-bye, remember how we all cried
NC E A A A E A A A E A A A E
It was feeling I have to admit – one or the other, however you see it
~E B A E B A E
I just can't find a way to breathe, wondering how to find some ease
F#/open E A/open E F#/open E A/open E
But ooh, so you know, and oh, so I know

CHORUS:
NC C#- G# A B C#- G# A
I've taken my time 'cause I've got all day, no matter what they say
NC C#- G# A B C#- G# A A-
And when it's defined, I'll sure let you know, 'cause I'm taking it, taking it slow......
NC E (back to the intro)
So slow

VERSE II:
NC E A A A E A A A E A A A E
Once upon a time way back when, a Queen of options, a kingdom of friends
B A E B A E
oh what a twist and turn it's been, if I only knew it then
F#-/open E A/open E F#-/open E A/open E
but oh now I know, and oh now you know

CHORUS (same as 1st)
NC E (like the intro)
so slow, so slow, so slow....
