Am C G F
[Verse 1]
Am C
Be careful little eyes what you see
G Dm
It’s the second glance that ties your hands as darkness pulls the strings
Am C
Be careful little feet where you go
G Dm
For it’s the little feet behind you that are sure to follow
[Chorus]
Am G
It’s a slow fade when you give yourself away
Dm F
It’s a slow fade when black and white have turned to gray
Am G C
Thoughts invade, choices are made, a price will be paid
F
When you give yourself away
Dm G
People never crumble in a day
Am C G F
It’s a slow fade, it’s a slow fade
[Verse 2]
Am C
Be careful little ears what you hear
G Dm
When flattery leads to compromise, the end is always near
Am C
Be careful little lips what you say
G Dm
For empty words and promises lead broken hearts astray
[Chorus]
Am G
It’s a slow fade when you give yourself away
Dm F
It’s a slow fade when black and white have turned to gray
Am G C
Thoughts invade, choices are made, a price will be paid
F
When you give yourself away
Dm G
People never crumble in a day
[Bridge]
Dm F
The journey from your mind to your hands
Am G
Is shorter than you’re thinking
Dm F
Be careful if you think you stand
C F
You just might be sinking
[Instrumental]
Am C G Dm
[Chorus]
Am G
It’s a slow fade when you give yourself away
Dm F
It’s a slow fade when black and white have turned to gray
Am G C
Thoughts invade, choices are made, a price will be paid
F
When you give yourself away
Dm G
People never crumble in a day
Dm G
Daddies never crumble in a day
Dm F
Families never crumble in a day
[Outro]
Am C
Oh be careful little eyes what see
G F
Oh be careful little eyes what you see
Am C
For the Father up above is looking down in love
G C
Oh be careful little eyes what you see
