time is 4/4
Eb G5 Eb5
A restless eye across a weary room
Eb F5
A glazed look and I was on the road to ruin
C Eb5 F5
The music played and played as we whirled without end,
F Ab5
No hint, no word, her honor to defend
Eb G5
I will, I will she sighed to my request
Eb F5
Then she tossed her mane, while my resolve was put to the test,
C Eb
Then drowned in desire, our souls on fire, I led the way to the funeral pyre
F
Without a thought of hte consequence, I gave into my decadence,
C Eb/Bb
One slip, and down the hole we fall
Bb Gsus2
It seems to take, no time at all
C Eb/B/
A momentary lapse of reason, that binds a life for life
Bb Gsus2
A small regret you won't forget, there'll be no sleep in here tonight.
(Bass solo)
Eb G5
Was it love, or was it the idea of being in love?
Eb F5
Or was it the hand of fate, that seemed to fit just like a glove?
C Eb
The moment wnet by, and soon the seeds were sown.
F
The year grew late, and neither one wanted to reamin alone.
C Eb/Bb
One slip, and down the hole we fall.
Bb Gsus2
Is seems to take no time at all.
C Eb/Bb
A momentary lapse of reason, that binds life to a life,
Bb Gsus2
The one regret you will never forget, there'll be no sleep in here tonight

Lyrics:-
A restless eye across a weary room
A glazed look and I was on the road to ruin
The music played and played as we whirled without end
No hint, no word her honour to defend
I will, I will she sighed to my request
And then she tossed her mane while my resolve was put to the test
Then drowned in desire, our souls on fire
I lead the way to the funeral pyre
And without a thought of the consequence
I gave in to my decadence
One slip, and down the hole we fall
It seems to take no time at all
A momentary lapse of reason
That binds a life for life
A small regret, you won't forget,
There'll be no sleep in here tonight
Was it love, or was it the idea of being in love?
Or was it the hand of fate, that seemed to fit just like a glove?
The moment slipped by and soon the seeds were sown
The year grew late and neither one wanted to remain alone
One slip, and down the hole we fall
It seems to take no time at all
A momentary lapse of reason
That binds a life for life
A small regret, you won't forget,
There'll be no sleep in here tonight
One slip ... one slip.

One Slip
A restless eye across a weary room
A glazed look and I was on the road to ruin
The music played and played as we whirled without end
No hint, no word her honour to defend
I will, i will she sighed to my request
And then she tossed her mane while my resolve was put to the test
Then drowned in desire, our souls on fire
I led the way to the funeral pyre
And without a thought of the consequence
I gave in to my decadence
One slip, and down the hole we fall
It seems to take no time at all
A momentary lapse of reason
That binds a life to a life
A small regret, you won't forget,
There'll be no sleep in here tonight

Was it love, or was it the idea of being in love?
Or was it the hand of fate, that seemed to fit just like a glove?
The moment slipped by and soon the seeds were sown
The year grew late and neither one wanted to remain alone
One slip, and down the hole we fall
It seems to take no time at all
A momentary lapse of reason
That binds a life to a life
The one regret, you will never forget,
There'll be no sleep in here tonight
One slip , and down the hole we fall
It seems to take no time at all
No time at all
A momentary lapse of reason
That binds a life to a life
The one regret, you will never forget,
There'll be no sleep in here tonight
