    D                              A 
Slow down I really want to hear your voice 
                           G 
Love is such a simple choice 
                          A 
Hidden behind this busy life 
   D 
Slow down   
                                A 
You're breaking off my sin and shame 
                                  G 
Sometimes it's hard to speak your name 
                                     A 
With all these distractions stealing time 

verse 1 

     A                                      G 
I can feel the weight of the world on my shoulders 
                       D 
Even though it's not there 
    A                              G 
And even when I feel like I am all alone 
                   D 
I know you still care for me 
     A                                 G 
So carry me into my destiny but don't leave me 
                      D 
The same way that I came to you  
    A 
I try to let go but I find 
           Bm       
This worry plagues me so 
                G 
Even though the answer's clear 

Chorus 

verse 2 

    A     
If patience light the path to  
                   G 
A life thats lived in love 
        D 
Let it shine on me 
             A 
'Cause the busyness of life 
              G 
And learning how to live 
                D 
Has stolen what makes me free 
  A                              G 
I long to just be present in the present 
                     D 
But sometimes I'm distracted 
    A                                 Bm 
So now I know there's only one thing left to do 
          G 
I'm gonna shut it all down 

Chorus 

Ending 

   D         A 
Slow down  Slow down 
               G 
I'm not in a hurry I don't have to worry 
    A         D 
Slow down  Slow down
