One Slip

Eb                            Gm4
A restless eye across a weary room
Eb                                
A glazed look and I was on the 
       Fsus4
road to ruin
    C                            
The music played and played as we 
                  Eb6  Eb
whirled without end
F                       Ab9
No hint, no word her honour to 
defend

Eb                            
I will, I will she sighed to my 
    Gm4
request
                 Eb                
And then she tossed her mane while 
                             Fsus4 
my resolve was put to the test
F Fsus4

     C                             
Then drowned in desire, our souls 
          Eb
on fire, I lead the way to the 
funeral pyre
        F
And without a thought of the 
consequence, I gave into my 
decadence

One slip, and down the hole we fall
   Bb9                  Gm9
It seems to take no time at all
  C9                            
A momentary lapse of reason, 
Eb7M/Bb
that binds a life for life
    Bb9                          
A small regret, you won't forget, 
     Gm9
there'll be no sleep in here 
tonight.

Eb                                
Was it love, or was it the idea of
       Gm4
 being in love?
              Eb                
Or was it the hand of fate, that 
                              Fsus4
seemed to fit just like a glove?
  F  Fsus4

    C                              
The moment slipped by and soon the 
           Eb
seeds were sown
    F
The year grew late and neither one 
wanted to remain alone
C9                          Eb7M/Bb
One slip, and down the hole we fall.
   Bb9                  Gm9
It seems to take no time at all
  C9                            
A momentary lapse of reason, 
Eb7M/Bb
that binds life to a life
    Bb9                      
The one regret you will never 
             Gm9
forget, there'll be no sleep in here
 tonight
