[Intro] Am C Em G Am [Chorus] C Em I woke up this mornin' feelin' low G Am And I had to let go of my ego.... C Em I can't stand my reflection no more..... G And I don't know why Am I can't take it slow (Slo-oh-oh-oh-oh) C I don't know why, I don't know why Em (Slo-oh-oh-oh-oh) G I don't know why Am I can't take it slow (Slo-oh-oh-oh-oh) C I don't know why, I don't know why Em (Slo-oh-oh-oh-oh) G I don't know why I can't take it slow [Verse] Am Sometimes it feels too good to be true C I don't know what else to do but to get up and move Em Build an enterprise, change my children's lives G The way I feel inside, my time is minimized Am I got a plan devised, problems I'ma improvise C I can't lose my temper got too much to jeopardize Em You can't trust no one of these days they gon' testify G I battle with myself daily, I'm a Gemini Am Two sides to every story so I empathize C I done came a long way since I went inside Em Stand at the finish line, can I really finish mine G I don't hear 'em when the criticize or they tell them lies Am Give 'em time, ha ha [Chorus] C Em I woke up this mornin' feelin' low G Am And I had to let go of my ego..... C Em I can't stand my reflection no more...... G And I don't know why Am I can't take it slow (Slo-oh-oh-oh-oh) C I don't know why, I don't know why Em (Slo-oh-oh-oh-oh) G Am I don't know why I can't take it slow (Slo-oh-oh-oh-oh) C I don't know why, I don't know why Em (Slo-oh-oh-oh-oh) G I don't know why I can't take it slow [Verse] Am From the roads I've been travelin' to the demons I'm battlein' C Tell the truth, sometimes I feel like I'm unravelin' Em I've been havin' my head down and facin' these challenges G I don't know, I feel like I've been wastin' my talent Am I've been movin' in hate, I ain't been movin' in love C You gotta be the first to admit it when you freakin' up Em I've been tryin' to get away, I've been focused on the life G And I learned that real change doesn't happen over night Am Tell my girl to blow 'em twice, before I roll the dice C This is our last chance, it's the bottom of the ninth Em I can feel the wind comin', put the bottles on the ice G It's about freakin' time, we've been losin' all our life Am Cheers to change [Chorus] C Em I woke up this mornin' feelin' low G Am And I had to let go of my ego.... C Em I can't stand my reflection no more..... G And I don't know why Am I can't take it slow (Slo-oh-oh-oh-oh) C I don't know why, I don't know why Em (Slo-oh-oh-oh-oh) G I don't know why Am I can't take it slow (Slo-oh-oh-oh-oh) C I don't know why, I don't know why Em (Slo-oh-oh-oh-oh) G I don't know why N.C. I can't take it slow
