One Slip

D F#m A restless eye across a weary room D E A glazed look and I was on the road to ruin C D The music played and played as we whirled without end E G No hint no word her honor to defend

D F#m I will I will she sighed to my request F#m D And then she tossed her mane D E While my resolve was put to the test

C Then drowned in desire our souls on fire D I led the way to the funeral pyre E And without a thought of the consequence E I gave in to my decadence

A D One slip and down the hole we fall A F#m It seems to take no time at all A A momentary lapse of reason D That binds a life for life A A small regret you won't forget A F#m There'll be no sleep in here tonight

D F#m - D F#m

D F#m Was it love or was it the idea of being in love F#m D Or was it the hand of fate D E That seemed to fit just like a glove C D The moment slipped by and soon the seeds were sown E The year grew late and neither one wanted to remain alone

A D One slip and down the hole we fall A F#m It seems to take no time at all A A momentary lapse of reason D That binds a life for life A A small regret you won't forget A F#m There'll be no sleep in here tonight

D F#m - D F#m
