     G                C
When we played tag in grade school
    Am           D
You wanted to be it
    Bm               Em
But chasing boys was just a fad
    C            C/B  Am       G
You crossed your heart and you quit

     G              C       
When we grew up you traded
     Am            D
Your promise for a ring
    Bm                Em
Now just like back to grade school
       C         C/B Am     G
You're doing the same   old thing

Chorus:
G                  C                Am
Stop! the love you save may be your own
D                 Bm
 Darling, take it slow
   Em                C  C/B     Am G
Or some day youll be all alone.
             G                 C                Am
You'd better stop the love you save may be your own
D                   Bm              Em
 Darling, look both ways before you cross me
       C      C/B     Am     G
You're headed for the danger zone

E5
I'm the one who loves you
I'm the one you need
Those other guys will put you down
As soon as they succeed
They'll ruin your reputation
They'll label you a flirt
The way they talk about you
They'll turn your name to dirt, oh

G             C
Isaac said he kissed you
  Am              D
Beneath the apple tree
     Bm              Em
When Benji held your hand he felt
C     C/B Am G
E-lec-tri-ci-ty
     G         C
When Alexander called you
   Am                D
He said he rang your chimes
Bm            Em
Christopher discovered
       C    C/B        Am G
You're way ahead of your  time

Chorus

E5

Slow down
Slow down
Slow down

E5
S is for save it
T is for take it slow
O is for oh, no
P is for please, please, don't go

G            C                Am 
The love you save may be your own
             D
Some day you may be all alone
Bm         Em       C C/B  Am G
  Stop it     Baby  

             G                  C                Am 
You'd better Stop! the love you save may be your own
        D
Please, please
   Bm                 Em
Or some day, some day baby
          C  C/B Am G
You'll be all alone

Em
I'm the one who loves you
I'm the one you need
Those other guys will put you down as soon as they succeed
