The Slide(Chords)

	        

Intro: G C Am G 



G 

When you're too old for the swings 
C 
You tend to choose the slide 
Am  
And they never seem to warn you 
G  
The slide's your final ride 
G  
And when you're at the top of it 
C  
And you cannot see the end 
Am                         G 
Either don't let go son or grab the nearest friend 
G                           C  
The slide is no respecter of dignity or class 
Am  
As soon as you sit down on it 
G  
That slide has got your ass 
                              
G                                    C 
Don't take the slide, don't take the slide 
(Slide, slide) 
Am                                 G 
Heroes and villains have tried and cried 
G                                 C  
A broken soul at the bottom lies denied 
(Slide, slide) 
               Am                    G                    
Don't take the slide, don't take the slide 
  


When the slide was invented 
A thousand drinkers sighed 
They thought they had the copyright 
On the very word the slide 
It's a picture of innocence 
On which the innocent have fried 
Take the helter skelter son 
It's easier than the slide 
Advice to listening parents 
(Ooh) 
Or the father of the bride 
Let them marry anyone 
(Ooh) 
But don't let her take the slide 
  


Don't take the slide, don't take the slide 
(Slide, slide) 
Heroes and villains have tried and cried 
(Ooh) 
A broken soul at the bottom lies denied 
(Slide, slide) 
Don't take the slide, don't take the slide 
(Ooh) 
  


It'll take you much much lower 
Than you ever would have asked 
'Cause as soon as you sit down on it 
The slide has got your ass 
It's customers are fools 
(Ooh) 
And every one of them deceased 
The long and silver murderer 
(Ooh) 
The devil must have greased 
  


(Aaa) 
I'm on it 
(Aaa) 
You're on it 
(Aaa aaa) 
The slide, the slide 
  


Don't take the slide, don't take the slide 
(Slide, slide) 
Heroes and villains have tried and cried 
(Ooh ) 
A pile of broken souls at the bottom it denied 
(Slide, slide) 
Don't take the slide, don't take the slide 
(Ooh) 
  


Don't take the slide, don't take the slide 
(Slide, slide) 
Heroes and villains have tried and cried 
(Ooh) 
A broken soul at the bottom it denied 
(Slide, slide) 
Don't take the slide, don't take the slide 
(Ooh)
