"Lay Me Down"


Em Cadd9 G D (single strum) x2


Verse 1: (single strum)
Em       Cadd9    G        D
     You let me in, 'cause after all
Em      Cadd9      G           D
     It seemed like the right to do, oh whoa
Em   Cadd9        G           D          Em
     I close my eyes and there you fall
  Cadd9  G       D             Em    Cadd9
I wonder what you could possible know
G              D            Cadd9
About breaking down that I don't


Pre- Chorus:
             G           Cadd9
It's been awhile since I begged for
D
Anything and now I want more


Chorus:
    G     D         Em   Cadd9        G
So lay me down, I'm lonely, Ooh whoa
         D      Em
You don't understand me

Cadd9 (hold)
And you never even tried to anyway


Em Cadd9 G D (single strum) x2


Verse 2: (single strum)
Em   Cadd9        G
  I  hear you say
     D        Em
It's not the same
     Cadd9      G           D              Em
I'm sorry; it's something I just can't explain
   Cadd9        G
So shut your mouth
     D        Em
And hold me close
    Cadd9           G          D           Cadd9
We both know, it's better than being alone


Pre-Chorus:
     G               Cadd9
I don't mind, killing time
D
As long as I can see it in your eyes


Chorus:
   G      D         Em   Cadd9      G
So Lay me down, I'm lonely, Ooh whoa
          D    Em
You don't understand me
Cadd9
And you never even tried


Bridge:
Em             A             Cadd9       D
Wanting you is wrong and I'm wrong and I mean it
Em          A          Cadd9          D        G
Time after time you realize you don't mean it, yeah


D Em Cadd9

Chorus:
G      D         Em   Cadd9      G
Lay me down, I'm lonely, Ooh whoa
          D    Em
You don't understand me
Cadd9                    G
And you never even tried

           D                Em
I'm lonely,     lay me down
           Cadd9            G
I'm sorry,      lay me down

          D    Em
You don't understand me
Cadd9
And you never even tried to anyway
