Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

 Chords):

 It was a recipe for disaster

 A four course meal of “no Siree”

 It seemed that happily ever after

 Was happy everyone was after me

 It was a cup of good intentions

 A table spoon of one big mess

A dash of over reaction

 And I assume you know the rest

Chorus

One little slip, One little slip

 It was a fusion of confusion

 With a few confounding things

 I guess I probably took the wrong direction

 Well I admit I might’ve missed a sign or two

 I ran a light past your affection

 And humiliation never knew

 I took a right turn at confusion

 A left when I should’ve gone straight on through

 I ran ahead with my assumptions

 And we all know what that can do

Repeat Chorus

 I get the feeling in this town

 I’ll never live till I live down

 The one mistake that seems to follow me around

 But they’ll forget about the sky

 When they all realize this guy

 Is about to try to learn to fly or hit the ground

Guitar solo

 It was a cup of good intentions

 A table spoon of one big mess

A dash of over reaction

 And I assume you know the rest

One little slip, One little slip

 It was a humble little stumble

 With a big un-graceful

Repeat Chorus
