Slow Turning Chords

[Intro]
A D G D x4
 
[Verse]
       A     D    G
When I was a boy
  D               A    D     G
I thought it just came to ya
D           A     D           G
But I never could tell what's mine,
       D            A      D  G  D
so it didn't matter anyway
        A         D    G  D
My only pride and joy,
         A           D     G
was this racket down here
D             A   D   G
Banging on an old guitar,
D              A       D   G  D
singin' what I had to say.
E
 I always thought our house was haunted
Bm                   D       A
 'Cause nobody said 'boo' to me
E
 I never did get what I wanted
Bm                    D      N.C.
 But now I get what I need
 
[Chorus]
                 A      D  G
It's been a slow turning
D               A   D  G
from the inside out
  D    A       D    G
A slow turning baby
        D     A   D  G
but you come about
  D    A        D G
A slow learning,   but you
D        A            D     G
learn to sway, a hey, hey
  D    A       D    G    D     A
A slow turning baby  not fade away,
    D     G        D     A   D G D
not fade away, not fade away
 
[Break]
A D G D x3
 
[Verse]
        A     D    G
Now I'm in my car,
D             A     D     G
ooh I got the radio down
D       A              D           G
Now I’m yellin' at the kids in the back,
 
               D
‘cause they're banging like
A           D  G  D
Charlie Watts
              A       D   G  D
You think you come so far
        A         D    G
in this one horse town
D          A             D     G
Then she's laughing that crazy laugh,
           D
‘cause you haven't left the
A          D  G  D
parking lot
E
 Time is short, and here's the
E
damned thing about it
Bm                       D       A
 You're gonna die, gonna die for sure
E
You can learn to live with
E
love or without it
Bm                  D       N.C.
 But there ain't no cure
 
[Chorus]
                 A     D   G
It's been a slow turning
D               A   D  G
from the inside out
  D    A       D   G
A slow turning
        D     A   D  G
but you come about
  D    A              D   G
A slow turning, baby, but you
D        A            D     G
learn to sway, a hey, hey
  D    A       D G    D     A
A slow turning    not fade away,
    D     G        D     A
not fade away, not fade away
    D     G        D     A   D G D
not fade away, not fade away

D     A     D G D    A      D G

D    A      D G D    A      D G D   A
Slow Turning    Slow Turning
