Lay Me Down chords by Will And The People

Intro: F#m G#m (2x)

Verse
F#m G#m
I keep it steady I keep it slow
           E
Until my heart is ready to be alone
           D#                                          G#m
Well it's strange to think how close we've grown together
                                          E
You know I thought that we we're in this forever
                                   D#
I guess that's all I that can remember

                              E 4-4-4-4-6-6-6-6-7-7-7-7---------|
Slave man I ain't being so clever

Pre-Chorus
E                  G#m        F#
You shake me awake when I'm trying to sleep
E                     G#m        F#
My heart is only safe when I'm stuck in a dream
E                     G#m               F#
I make those mistakes and the memories I'll keep
E                   Em                   F#
Your shape is awake in the folds of my sheets


           B                   E           F#
So lay me down and close the curtains for me
        B                         E              F#
Lay me down this lights it's too bright for the evening
        B                E         F#
Lay me down because I'm hoping to sleep
              (F#m) G#m
Just lay me down

Verse

F#m G#m
Let's rewind, in time
    E                                D#
My mind is round the band oh but my body is on the mend
G#m                 E
So unwind before I stop and blink
                             D#
I use this ink to make you think

                E 4-4-4-4-6-6-6-6-7-7-7-7---------|
To make you think

Pre-Chorus
E                  G#m        F#
You shake me awake when I'm trying to sleep
E                     G#m        F#
My heart is only safe when I'm stuck in a dream
E                     G#m               F#
I make those mistakes and the memories I'll keep
E                   Em                   F#
Your shape is awake in the folds of my sheets


           B                   E           F#
So lay me down and close the curtains for me
        B                         E              F#
Lay me down this lights it's too bright for the evening
        B                E         F#
Lay me down because I'm hoping to sleep
              E            Em
