Lay Down Beside ME

Kenny Rogers


I've spent my life, looking for you 
Finding my way wasn't easy to do 
But I knew there was you all the while   
And it's been worth every mile  
Lay down beside me, and love me and hide  me  Kiss all the hurtin' of this world  away 
Hold me so close that I feel your  heartbeat 
And don't ever wander away 
Mornings and evenings; all were the same 
And there was no music 'til I heard your  name 
But I knew when I saw your smile 
Now I can rest for awhile 
Lay down beside me, and love me and hide  me 

Kiss all the hurtin' of this world away 

Hold me so close that I feel your  heartbeat 

And don't ever wander away 

(G)Lay (G7)down be(C)side me,  

(G)Kiss all the hurtin' of this world  a(D)way 

(G)Hold (G7)me so (C)close  

And (G)don't ever (D)wander a(G)way
