[Intro 1]
[D][Dsus4][G][Dsus4][D][G][D]

[Verse 1]
Lay down [D]softly
[G]in our sor[Dsus4]row[D]
Lay down sister to [Asus4]die
[A][Asus4][D]
And cover over,
[Dsus4]my sweet [G]Father[D]
Cover [Asus4]over her [D]eyes

[Verse 2]
[D]
Your broken [G]body, it cannot [D]weather
The years your youth still long[A]s
[D]to spend[A][Asus4][A][D]
So go down graceful,
[G]sleep with the ang[D]els
And wake up [A]whole
[Asus4]again
[D]

[Verse 3]
'Cause it was not [Bm]your
time; that's a useless [D]line
[Dsus4]A fallen [G]world t[D]ook your life
[Asus4]

[Verse 4]
[A]
But [D]the God that [A]sometimes
can't [Bm]be found
Will [G]wrap Himself [D]around you
So lay [A]down, sister,
[D]lay down

[Interlude 1]
[D][G][D][G]
[D]

[Verse 5]
Slower [D]passing [G]are the
[Dsus4]hours[D]
To tell this tale that takes
its [Asus4]time[A][D]
But the finest moment,
[G]no man can mea[D]sure
Is to look your Sa[A]vior [D]in the eyes

[Verse 6]
[D]
So take her [G]tender to
Your [Dsus4]table[D]
Take her from this [A]killing [Asus4]floor[A][D]
To taste the [Dsus4]water
[G]that is for[D]ever
Let her be [A]thirsty [Asus4]no more[D]
It was not [A]her

[Verse 7]
[Bm]
time; that's a useless line
[G]A f[Dsus4]allen world[D]
took her life
[Asus4]

[Verse 8]
[A]
But [D]the God that sometimes
can[A]'t be [Bm]found
Will [Dsus4]wrap Himself arou[D]nd you
So lay [A]down, sister, lay [Bm]down

[Verse 9]
And [D]the God that [A]sometimes
can't [Bm]be found
Will [D]wrap [Dsus4]Him self aroun[D]d you
So lay [A]down, Rita,
[Asus4]lay down[A][D]
