Dierks Bentley

Settle For A Slowdown

Settle For A Slowdown
Dierks Bentley

Key of Dm

Verse: 1
Dm     F                    Bb
I must look just like a fool
Dm           F                  Bb
Here in the middle of the road
Dm         F                       Bb
Standing there in your rear view
                 Dm                       F  Bb
And getting soaked to the bone
Dm             F              Bb
This land is flat as it is mean
Dm            F                        Bb
A man can see for a hundred miles
Dm            F                    Bb
So I'm still praying I might see
                    Dm          F   Bb  C
The glow of a brake light

Chorus: 1
F                                             Dm
But your wheels just turn Down the road ahead
Bb                               C
If it hurts at all You ain't showed it yet
             F                    Dm
I keep a looking for The slightest sign
       Bb                                  C       
That you might miss What you left behind
 Gm                          Ab                Bb                              Dm   F  Bb
I know there's nothing stopping you now I'd settle for a slowdown

Verse: 2
Dm        F                  Bb
I held on longer then I should
Dm       F                                Bb
Leaving you might change your mind
Dm                    F                  Bb
And those bright lights of Hollywood
          Dm           F   Bb  C
Would fade in time

Repeat Chorus:
             F                                     Dm
But your wheels just turn Down the road ahead
     Bb                          C
If it hurts at all you ain't showed it yet
                F                       Dm
Your just a tiny dot On that rising line
Bb                                       C
Honey tip those brakes Baby just one time
  Gm                         Ab                Bb
I know there's nothing stopping you now
           Gm               Ab             Bb
I'm not asking you to turn back around
                              Dm   F  Bb
I'd settle for a slowdown
