Will and the People - Lay me Down
[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
[Chorus]
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
