Standard (EADGBE)

Verse i

 We used to fill our time with so much to do

 Had to pick up the boys when they got done with school

 Had to pay the bills and budget right

 And sleep for whatever was left of the night

[G/f#]

We spent a lot of time cuttin' it close

To losin' sight of what mattered the most

Chorus

 But we'd be cookin' in the kitchen to the radio

 And you'd take a minute when the song was slow

 You'd grab my arm like we had all the time in the world

 Oh you'd never miss it when the mood was right

 You'd wrap your arms around me and you'd hold me tight

 For three short minutes, we'd let the whole world go

Because you'd take the time for Dancin' Slow

Verse ii

All the other people that I'd see each day

Would talk about how easily love fades away

And I'd think to myself how that couldn't be true

It only grew stronger between me and you

The longer we loved, the more I understood

How rare it could be to have it so good.

Chorus

'Cause we'd be laughin' in the kitchen by the radio

And you'd take a minute when the song was slow

And you'd grab my arm like we had all the time in the world

Oh you'd never miss it when the mood was right

You'd wrap your arms around me and you'd hold me tight

For three short minutes, we'd let the whole world go

Because you'd take the time for Dancin' Slow
