Slow down easy, I’ve been hauling a heavy soul And don’t you know, honey it’s time Slow down easy, so much trouble got a heavy toll Take my hand, won’t you be mine Verse We were born homesick, the plot was understood We put away all the worry we could keep Maybe I’m too burdened to tremble like I should Maybe you’re too sick to go too deep Slow down easy, I’ve been hauling a heavy soul And don’t you know, honey it’s time Slow down easy, so much trouble got a heavy toll Take my hand, won’t you be mine Verse Dissatisfaction, the tired familiar taste Coughing up bad blood in every rhyme Come on young savior, don’t let your fever go to waste You got neon arms for new age crimes Slow down easy, I’ve been hauling a heavy soul And don’t you know, honey it’s time Slow down easy, so much trouble got a heavy toll 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 Your heart’s on the table You do what you’re able Don’t you suffer no pain over me Slow down easy, I’ve been hauling a heavy soul And don’t you know, honey it’s time Slow down easy, so much trouble got a heavy toll Take my hand, won’t you be mine Repeat ... I’ve been hauling a heavy soul ... Slow down easy, so much trouble got a heavy toll Outro - strum once each
