Settle For A Slowdown

*Tuned down a full step ( D G C F A D ) - I watched him playing it live on YouTube 
and watched his music video of this song, and this is EXACTLY how he plays it.
Sounds the best because you get the deep, country sound out of the guitar.



(Em7) I must (G)look just like A (Cadd9)fool
      
(Em7) Here in the (G)middle of the (Cadd9)road

(G)Standin' (D)there in your (Am)rearview

And gettin (Em7)soaked to the (G)bone    (Cadd9)



This land is flat, as it is mean

A man can see for a hundred miles
 
So I'm still prayin I might see

the glow of brake light



Chorus

G (320003@1)                                            Em7
But your wheels just turned down the road ahead
   C/G (3x555x@1)                                DIf (xx0232@1)it hurts at all you ain't showed it yet
           G (320003@1)                     Em7
I keep lookin for the slightest sign
   C/G (3x555x@1)                                       DThat (xx0232@1)you might miss what you left behind
     Am (x02210@1)                         G/B (143121@7)              Cadd9I (x32030@1)know there's nothin stopping you now
                               Em7            G (320003@1)          Cadd9But (x32030@1)I'd settle for a slow down

I held on longer than I should
   
Believin' you might change your mind

And those bright lights of Hollywood,
       
Would fade in time

Chorus

But your wheels just turned down the road ahead

If it hurts at all you ain't showed it yet

You're just a tiny dot on that horizon line

C'mon just tap those brakes

Baby, just one time
     Am (x02210@1)                              G/B (143121@7)              Cadd9I (x32030@1)know there's nothin stopping you now
G/B (143121@7)        Am (x02210@1)             G/B (143121@7)              Cadd9 (x32030@1)   
I'm not asking you to turn back around
     
I'd settle for a slow down
    
C'mon just slow down

I'd settle for a slow down
