Caroline Herring - Lay My Burden Down


INTRO: G+G

    D MajorD       G+G
When I lay my burden down
       C majorC          G+G
I'll hear no mourners outside my window
    D MajorD      G+G
Put my body in the ground
      C majorC       G+G    D MajorD
Because my spirit will be free at last
N.C.    G+G       B7B7
And I'll be flying in the darkness
       C majorC       G+G   D MajorD
I'll ride the wind without a sound___
    G+G   D MajorD   G+G   C majorC G+G D MajorD G+G
When I lay my burden down

    D MajorD          G+G
When I see that great green valley
       C majorC          G+G
The haunting shadows will fade behind me
     D MajorD            G+G
A augmentedA golden highway stretched out before me
      C majorC       G+G D MajorD
And I will walk into the sunrise
N.C.   G+G      B7B7
With the lion and the lamb
    C majorC       G+G   D MajorD
And the beasts of the field___
     G+G   D MajorD  G+G    C majorC G+G D MajorD G+G
When your secret is revealed


INSTRUMENTAL: D MajorD G+G C majorC G+G D MajorD G+G C majorC G+G D MajorD G+G D MajorD G+G


    D MajorD       G+G
When I lay my burden down
      C majorC          G+G
Could be tomorrow, god has not told me
  D MajorD     G+G
And now I will love
       C majorC            G+G   D MajorD
With all the heart, soul and strength within me
N.C. G+G      B7B7
As a mother and a lover
   C majorC      G+G
And a sister and a daughter
            B7B7
And then one day, over Jordan
     C majorC           G+G   D MajorD
I'll see angels, hear trumpets sound___
    G+G   D MajorD   G+G   C majorC
When I lay my burden down___
    G+G   D MajorD   G+G    D MajorD G+G
