Take This Slowly (CHORDS) by The Gray Havens
[Verse 1]~
G Em7 G Em7
if I took all that i've got
and spread it out on this table
G
it might not seem like a lot
Em7
a once glimmering joy
G Em7
slowly fading from view
G
all the change in my pocket is not enough
and this picture of you
[Pre-Chorus]~
Em
still i've heard all that I have
C G
and a moment is hardly a sign
Em C G
of everything coming my way i believe when I need it
D
it will be mine
[Chorus]~
C
so lets take this slowly
all I need is coming but
G
its just beyond what I cant see
C
so if my eyes press forward and fierce alarm
D
just turn my head back and to see
C
to see how we got this far
G
and I'll be alright!
[Verse 2]~
G
im not asking for mountains of riches
no silver or gold
C G
dont need fame or fancy things I can take when I go
im just asking for grace
grace,.. to carry on
C
grace,.. to take joy in my place at the table
G
and the rock that its standing on
[Pre-Chorus]~
Em
still i've heard all that I have
C G
and a moment is hardly a sign
Em C G
of everything coming my way i believe when I need it
D
it will be mine
[Chorus]~
C
so lets take this slowly
all I need is coming but
G
its just beyond what I cant see
C
so if my eyes press forward and fierce alarm
D
just turn my head back and to see
C
to see how we got this far
G
and I'll be alright!
[Bridge]~
Em
and even when im burnt down,..
C
and even when what I got now is falling faster down
G
beneith the cracks and I dont know when its coming back around
Em
Even then I'll be calling out louder,.. louder enough to wake them up
C G
and believe and I believe what I will hold
D
Hold will be enough,..
C D
will be enough
[Chorus]~
C
so lets take this slowly
all I need is coming but
G
its just beyond what I cant see
C
so if my eyes press forward and fierce alarm
D
just turn my head back and to see
C
to see how we got this far
G
and I'll be alright!

its gonna be alright
G
