G Em 2x

G                                Em
Slip sliding away, slip sliding away
             G                D           C                D        G
You know the nearer your destination, the more you're slip sliding away

         Em                G
I know a man, he came from my hometown
            C               D            C           C7
He wore his passion for his woman like a thorny crown
          G                Em
He said Dolores, I live in fear
            G            D              C          D           G
My love for you's so overpowering, I'm afraid that I will disappear

              G                  Em
Slip sliding away, slip sliding away
             G                D           C                D        G
You know the nearer your destination, the more you're slip sliding away

             Em     D          G
And I know a woman,   became a wife
              C              D          C             C7
These are the very words she uses to describe her life
           G                     Em
She said a good day ain't got no rain
           G                 D
She said a bad day is when I lie in bed
    C        D                      G
And think of things that might have been

              G                  Em
Slip sliding away, slip sliding away
             G                D           C                 D        G     F C G 
You know the nearer your destination, the more you're slip sliding away

             Em    D           G
And I know a father  who had a son
             C                D               C               C7
He longed to tell him all the reasons for the things he’d done
          G                  Em
He came a long way just to explain
              G             D
He kissed his boy as he lay sleeping
        C                 D            G
Then he turned around and headed home again

              G                   Em
He's Slip sliding , slip sliding away
             G                D           C                D        G    F C G   F C G
You know the nearer your destination, the more you're slip sliding away

             Em                   G
And God only knows, God makes his plan
    C               D                C         C7
The information's unavailable to the mortal man
                 G                 Em
We're workin our jobs, collect our pay
              G                D                C               D        G
Believe we're gliding down the highway, when in fact we're slip sliding away

              G                  Em
Slip sliding away, slip sliding away
             G                D           C                D        G
You know the nearer your destination, the more you're slip sliding away 
              G                  Em
Slip sliding away, slip sliding away
             G                D           C                D        G
You know the nearer your destination, the more you're slip sliding away

[Outro]

Em             G                                           Em
