G C Am GG 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
AmG Either don't let go son or grab the nearest friend
GC 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
GC Don't take the slide, don't take the slide
(Slide, slide)
AmG Heroes and villains have tried and cried
GC A broken soul at the bottom lies denied
(Slide, slide)
AmG Don't take the slide, don't take the slide
