Lay You Down Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
I hear him [D]callin'
Say he's gonna leave
He's gonna [F]ride on [G]the settin' [D]sun
He ain't scared to go there
He's traveled before
But to[F]night's gonna [G]be
his very [D]last one

[Verse 2]
[D]
And it's crazy all around
Rustlin' in and rustlin' out
[Dm]The ster[F]eo's playin', we're
just [G]passing [Dsus4]time[D]
And there ain't much left to say here,
cause when it all comes down
We've left it all [F]up to [G]the toss
of the [D]dime

[Verse 3]
[Bb]Who's gonna lay [F]you down tonight?
[C]Tears falling lik[G]e pouring rain
An[Dm]d ho[Bb]ld your ha[F]nd while
you [C]wash away
[Bb]Who's gonna lay you [F]down tonight?
[C]Put aside the[G] fear and the pain
And [Bb]hold your [F]hand while you die
[D]

[Verse 4]
She stands in the doorway
She's got her head held high
She knows his [F]time on [G]earth is [D]done
And that sparkle in his eye
As the sun falls from the sky
He says, my [F]love you are the [G]only one
[D]

[Verse 5]
I [Bb]heard the [F]news[C]
They laid him in a [G]black suit
with [Bb]flowers [F]all [C]around
The [Bb]town is [F]filled [C]with strangers
that [G]love him still
They've [Bb]come to [F]see his burial [D]ground

[Verse 6]
I say, [Bb]who's gonna [F]lay you [D]down?

[Verse 7]
[D]
[C]Who[G][D][F][Am][G][D][Dsus4][D]
[Dsus4]who who[D][Dsus4][D]
Who [F]who who[G][C][D][Dm]
[Bb]Whooooooooo

[Verse 8]
Who's gonna lay you [F]down [C]tonight?
Tears falling like [G]pouring rain
And [Bb]hold your [F]hand while
you [C]wash away
[Bb]Who's gonna lay you [F]down tonight?
[C]Put aside the fea[G]r and the pain
And [Bb]hold your [F]hand [C]while you die
[D]

[Verse 9]
I say, [Bb]who's gonna [F]lay you [D]down?
[Bb]Who's gonna [C]lay [F]you [D]down?
