Settle For A Slowdown - Dierks Bentley


Drop D Tuning


Dm     F                Bb
I must look just like a fool
Dm          F             Bb
Here in the middle of the road   
Dm       F                 Cm
Standin'' there in your rearview
            Dm                 F     Bb
And gettin'' soaked to the bone

V2
Dm           F             Bb
This land is flat as it is mean
Dm        F                 Bb
A man can see for a hundred miles    
Dm           C               Bb
So I''m still prayin'' I might see
              Dm          F  Bb
The glow of a break light


CHORUS 1
         F                         Dm
But your wheels just turn Down the road ahead
      Bb                    C
If it hurts at all You aint showed it yet
       F              Dm
I keep lookin for The slightest sign
     Bb                      C
That you might miss What you left behind
  Gm                   F            Bb
I know there''s mothing stoppin'' you now
                     Dm  F    Bb
But I''d settle for a slowdown

V3
Dm        F             Bb
I held on longer than I should
Dm                  F           Bb
Believin'' you might change your mind
    Dm           F              Cm
And those bright lights of Hollywood
      Dm           F      Bb
Would fade in Time

CHORUS 1

CHORUS 2
         F                         Dm
But your wheels just turn Down the road ahead
      Bb                    C
If it hurts at all You aint showed it yet
              F                   Dm
You''re just a tiny dot On that horizon line
        Bb                         C
Come on tap those brakes Baby just one time
  Gm                   F            Bb
I know there''s mothing stoppin'' you now
        Gm            F         Bb
I''m not askin'' you to turn back around
                     Dm        F  Bb
But I''d settle for a slowdown
             Dm  F    Bb
Come on just slowdown
                 Dm  F    Bb
I''d settle for a slowdown
