Am                   G           Am
There ain't no well deeper than a mother's fear
  Dm                Am           Dm
There ain't no sky bluer than a mother's tear
         Dm         Am                  G            Am
She said "I believe in your dreams but just between you and me
Am              G          Am
I need you to listen to me now"
              Dm/G       Am
And she said "baby slow down"


[Chorus]
Dm             Am               G             Am
I don't wanna live to see your world coming down
Dm            Am         G              Am
I just want a boy whose soul has been found
  Dm            Am        G                  Am
Running in the red ever since you left this town
 Dm      Am             G          Am
Even if you decide to turn it all around
 Am   G    Am
Baby slow down
Dm     G   Am
Baby slow down


[Verse 2]
  Am                 G               Am
There ain't nothing worse on planet Earth
         Dm           Am           G        Dm
Than a mother laying rest to what she gave birth
         Dm         Am                  G           Am
She said "I believe in your dreams but just between you and me
 Am                  G                 Am
What's it all worth if you're in the ground?"
              Am/G       Am
And she said "baby slow down"


[Chorus]
Dm             Am                G           Am
I don't wanna live to see your world coming down
Dm            Am         G             Am
I just want a boy whose soul has been found
  Dm            Am       G                   Am
Running in the red ever since you left this town
 Dm     Am             G            Am
Even if you decide to turn it all around
 Am   G    Am
Baby slow down
 Dm   G    Am
Baby slow down


[Outro]
         Am/G       Am
She said baby slow down
Dm             Am                G           Am
I don't wanna live to see your world coming down
Dm            Am         G             Am
I just want a boy whose soul has been found
  Dm            Am        G                  Am
Running in the red ever since you left this town
 Dm     Am             G            Am
Even if you decide to turn it all around
Am    G   Am
Baby slow down
 Dm   G    Am
Baby slow down
