Slow Down Lyrics - Kenny Chesney

1 Verse 1:

2 I used to laugh with an old friend

3 Till the busy world pulled him away

4 Every now and then I see him again

5 But he's not the same man I knew yesterday

6 The smile just grows smaller and smaller

7 And the worry lines fill up his face

8 Lately I'm thinking next time I see him

9 Just what I'm gonna say

10 Chorus:

11 Slow down

12 Man in the mirror slow down

13 You're running too fast to see what life's all about

14 This world ain't a fire for you to put out

15 The best times are here and now

16 Slow down

17 Verse 2:

18 Some days I look back on the hard times

19 And they really don't seem all that bad

20 I've got to admit I like what I've got

21 But God I sure love what I had

22 And it's only on top of the mountain

23 After burning your life at both ends

24 You look back to see where you wanna be

25 Is exactly where you've always been

26 Chorus:

27 Slow down

28 Man in the mirror slow down

29 You're running too fast to see what life's all about

30 This world ain't a fire for you to put out

31 The best times are here and now

32 So slow down
