G         D     Bm                  D     G
Slow down easy, I’ve been hauling a heavy soul
G         D                     Bm    A
And don’t you know, honey it’s time
G         D     Bm                    D     G
Slow down easy, so much trouble got a heavy toll
G       D                  Bm
Take my hand, won’t you be mine

[Verse 1]
Em                         Bm
We were born homesick, the plot was understood
Em                                 G
We put away all the worry we could keep
Em                        Bm              A
Maybe I’m too burdened to tremble like I should
Em                             A
Maybe you’re too sick to go too deep

[Chorus]
G         D     Bm                  D     G
Slow down easy, I’ve been hauling a heavy soul
G         D         Bm                    A
And don’t you know, honey it’s time
G         D     Bm                    D     G
Slow down easy, so much trouble got a heavy toll
G       D                  Bm
Take my hand, won’t you be mine

[Verse 2]
Em                   Bm
Dissatisfaction, the tired familiar taste
Em                             G
Coughing up bad blood in every rhyme
Em                                   Bm           A
Come on young savior, don’t let your fever go to waste
       Em                     A
You got neon arms for new age crimes

[Chorus]
G         D     Bm                  D     G
Slow down easy, I’ve been hauling a heavy soul
G         D         Bm           A
And don’t you know, honey it’s time
G         D     Bm                    D     G
Slow down easy, so much trouble got a heavy toll
G       D                  Bm
Take my hand, won’t you be mine

[Solo: repeat the chords from the chorus, there's some fingerpicking going on, best to listen to it yourself
as John Moreland likes to improvise as well during live sessions.]

[Verse 3]
Em
Your heart’s on the table
Em
You do what you’re able
Em                           A
Don’t you suffer no pain over me

[Chorus]
G [Strum down and let it ring]            G
Slow down easy, I’ve been hauling a heavy soul

G         D         Bm               A
And don’t you know, honey it’s time
G         D         Bm                D     G
Slow down easy, so much trouble got a heavy toll
G       D                  Bm
Take my hand, won’t you be mine

[Repeat]
G         D     Bm                  D     G
...             I’ve been hauling a heavy soul
G         D         Bm
...
G         D         Bm                D     G
Slow down easy, so much trouble got a heavy toll
G       D                  Bm
