Slowly Oh So Slowly Tab

by Conor Oberst And The Mystic Valley Band


I got these chords from videos of CO on youtube, the hardest part was the last 
stanza, so if you think it needs correcting, let me know.

Thanks

                                
Potential, well, you're a loaded line
                                             
The veil between the world and the faceless bride
                                  
There's nothing yet but a bunch of white
                                   
Oh potential, well, you're a loaded line

                               
Tomorrow, well, I will wait for you
                                           
Laying right here floating in this swimming pool
                                        
There's a lot of things I've got left to do
                                  
Oh tomorrow, but I'll wait for you

                                   
The days keep slipping down into the cracks
                                       
It takes a while to realize where you're at
       
Slowly (so slowly)
       
Slowly (so slowly)
                     
Slowly, it's slowly ending

                             
Dementia, you better treat me good
                                    
The human race is in its second childhood
                        
I never learn but I understood
                                
Oh dementia, you better treat me good

                              
Sometimes I need a place to go
                                  
Classical music plays from the radio
                               
I sit real still, let my shadow grow
                                 
Yeah, sometimes I need a place to go

                                   
My mind keeps slipping back into the past
                               
I hope someday I can get it back
       
Slowly (so slowly)
       
Slowly (so slowly)
                        
Slowly, they're slowly ending

So slowly
       
Slowly (so slowly)
       
Slowly, slowly
              
It's slowly ending

                                        
And soon that train is going to pull away
                                              
I hear it whistling, I try to wave at a glowing face

They can't tell who I am
       
Slowly (so slowly)
       
Slowly (so slowly)
                     
Slowly, it's slowly ending
