Olivia Dean - Slowly

Capo: 3rd fret

[Verse 1]
G
Down in Margate had a sip of you
Em D Em D
And it went straight to my head
G
I could’ve opened up, cried and almost been myself
Em D Em D
But I took the piss instead

[Pre-Chorus]
G Bm
I find it hard, hard to be soft
E/G#
Stop saying I’m perfect
G
When clearly I’m not
F#m
Just need to catch
Em
Catch my breath

[Chorus]
G
Go slowly, slowly
D Bm
I know you’re not supposed to know me
Em G
I only see it when you show me slowly
D Bm
I love to teach you how to hold me
Em
So go on, hold me

[Verse 2]
G
Remember when you called us both a cab
Em D Em D
And forgot you had your bike

And the whole way home, I thought
G
“How’s he keeping up with me?

He must be really into me”
Em D D
As I fight the urge to fly

[Pre-Chorus]

G Bm
I find it hard, hard to be soft
E/G#
Stop saying I’m perfect
G
When clearly I’m not
F#m
Just need to catch
Em
Catch my breath

[Chorus]
G
Go slowly, slowly
D Bm
I know you’re not supposed to know me
Em G
I only see it when you show me slowly
D Bm
I love to teach you how to hold me
Em
So go on, hold me
G
Go slowly, slowly
D Bm
I know you’re not supposed to know me
Em G
I only see it when you show me slowly
D Bm
I love to teach you how to hold me
Em
So go on, hold me

[Outro]
D Em Bm7 D/A Gmaj7
Maybe I will be fine this time
D Em Bm7 D/A Gmaj7
And I’ll let you see me in the light
D Em Bm7 D/A Gmaj7
Yeah, maybe I will be fine
Em D
