[Verse 1]
Am D Em Em
When it's been too long since tranquility found you
Am D Em Em
and the vibe from your baby's a hornet's nest.
Am D Em Em
Before you go puttin' crosshairs between you and hindsight
Am D Em Em
and give in to the clenchin' creepin' into your fist.
[Pre-Chorus]
C D
Don't go takin' it out on anything but the highway.
Em Em
Let her go, my friend, let the outside air in.
Am D G Em
Get two tall boy beers, not one, not three, no radio edits permitted,
Am D Em Em
only live with the breakdown, live with the endin'.
[Verse 2]
Am D G Em
Slow ride argument, if you're as mad at the end as you were when you began.
Am D (C)
Slow ride argument. There's no goin' home again.
[Interlude]
| C | D | Em | Em |
[Chorus]
C D
Slow down, take it easy, slow down, take it easy.
Em Em
Slow down, take it easy, slow down, take it easy.
C
Slow down, take it easy (When it's been too long since tranquility found you),
D
slow down, take it easy (Tngha).
Em Em
(And the vibe from your baby's a hornet's nest), slow down, take it easy (Tngha).
C D
Slow down, take it easy (Don't go takin' out on anything but the highway)
Em Em
Slow down, take it easy, let her go, my friend, let the outside air in.
[Verse 3]
Am D G Em
Get two tall boy beers, not one, not three, no radio edits permitted,
Am D Em Em
only live with the breakdown, live with the endin'.
Am D G Em
Slow ride argument, if you're as mad at the end as you were when you began.
Am D (C)
Slow ride argument, there's no goin' home again.

[End-Chorus]
C D
Slow down, take it easy (Tngha), slow down, take it easy (Tngha).
Em Em
Slow down, take it easy (Tngha), slow down, take it easy (Tngha).
C D
Slow down, take it easy (Tngha), slow down, take it easy (Tngha).
Em Em
Slow down, take it easy.
