Lay Me Down

Sam Smith


Tom: A

E7M
Yes I do, I believe

That one day I will be, where I was
                            A7M
Right there, right next to you

And it's hard, the days just seem so dark

The moon, the stars, are nothing without you

       E7M
Your touch, your skin, where do I begin?
                                           A7M
No words can explain, the way I'm missing you

The night, this emptiness, this hole that I'm inside

These tears, they tell their own story

    F#m             A                Dbm         B
You told me not to cry when you were gone
          F#m         A                   E/B   F#m/B
But the feelings overwhelming, it's much too strong
    E             C#m           F#m   A
Can I lay by your side, next to you, you
     E                 C#m
And make sure you're alright
                  F#m        A
I'll take care of you, 
       A                       B                   E
And I don't want to be here if I can't be with you tonight

        E7M
I'm reaching out to you
                 A7M
Can you hear my call?
      E7M
This hurt that I've been through
                                    A7M
I'm missing you, missing you like crazy


    E    E/Eb       C#m           F#m   A
Can I lay by your side, next to you, you
     E                 C#m
And make sure you're alright
                  F#m        A
I'll take care of you, 
        A                       B
And I don't want to be here if I can't be with you tonight

( F#m  A  D  B )

F#m     A6    D7M     Bm7(9)
Lay me down tonight
F#m    A6       D7M     Bm7(9)
lay me by your side
F#m     A6    D7M     Bm7(9)
Lay me down tonight
F#m    A6       D7M     Bm7(9)
lay me by your side

    E             C#m           F#m   A   B    E
Can I lay by your side, next to you, you
