I’d Love To Lay You Down Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]There's a lot of ways of sayin'
what I want to say to you
There's [A]songs and poems and promises
of [G]dreams that might come [D]true
But I won't talk of starry skies
or moonlight on the ground
I'll come right out [A]and tell you,
I'd just [G]love to lay [D]you down

[Verse 2]
Lay you down and softly [D]whisper
pretty love words in your ear
Lay [A]you down and tell you all
the things a [G]woman loves to [D]hear
I'll let you know how much
it means just havin' you around
[A]Oh dar[D]lin' how I lov[A]e to
lay [D]you down

[Verse 3]
There's so [D]many ways your sweet love
made this house into a home
[A]Through raisin' kids and housework baby,
[G]you still turn me on[D]
Even standin' in the kitchen in you
faded cotton gown
With your hair all up in [A]curlers,
I'd still [G]love to lay [D]you down

[Verse 4]
Lay you down and softly [D]whisper
pretty love words in your ear
Lay [A]you down and tell you all the things
a [G]wo man loves to [D]hear
I'll let you know how much it means
just havin' you around
Oh darlin' how [A]I love to lay [D]you down

[Verse 5]
When a whole lot [D]of
decemers are showin' on your face
And [A]your auburn hair has faded
and [G]silver takes it's [D]place
You'll still be just as lovely,
and I'll still be around
And if I can I [A]know that I'll still
[G]love to lay [D]you down

[Verse 6]
Lay [D]you down and softly whisper
pretty love words in your ear
Lay [A]you down and tell you all
the things a [G]woman loves to [D]hear
I'll let you know how much it means
just havin' you around
Oh darlin' how I [A]love [D]to[C]

[Outro 1]
