B             E              G#m F#/A#
The lights go out, I am all alone
B                 E                      G#m F#/A#
All the trees outside are buried in the snow
B           E                    G#m      F#/A#
I spend my night dancing with my own shadow
        B               E             G#m
And it holds me and it never lets me go

Chorus:
   B                 E
I move slow and steady
      G#m              C#m
But I feel like a waterfall
         B                 E
Yeah, I move slow and steady
         G#m         C#m
Past the ones that I used to know

My dear old friend, take me for a spin
Two wolves in the dark, running in the wind
I'm letting go, but I've never felt better
Passing by, all the monsters in my head

Chorus:
And I move slow and steady
But I feel like a waterfall
Yeah, I move slow and steady
Past the ones that I used to kno-ow

And I'm never ready
'Cause I know, I know, I know
That time won't let me
Show what I want to show

Chorus:
And I move slow and steady
But I feel like a waterfall
Yeah, I move slow and steady
Past the ones that I used to kno-ow

And I'm never ready
'Cause I know, I know, I know
That time won't let me
Show what I want to show
