{t:Lay Down Sally}
{st:Eric Clapton (1977)}

{c:verse 1}
[G]There is nothing that is wrong
In wanting you to stay here with [C]me.
I [G]know you've got somewhere to go,
But won't you make yourself at home and [C]stay with me?
And don't you [D]ever leave.

{soc}
[G]Lay down, Sally, and [C]rest you in my arms.
[D]Don't you think you want someone to [G]talk to?
[G]Lay down, Sally, no [C]need to leave so soon.
[D]I've been trying all night long just to [G]talk to you.
{eoc}

{c:verse 2}
The [G]sun ain't nearly on the rise
And we still got the moon and stars a-[C]bove.
[G]Underneath the velvet skies,
Love is all that matters. Won't you [C]stay with me?
And don't you [D]ever leave.

{soc}
[G]Lay down, Sally, and [C]rest you in my arms.
[D]Don't you think you want someone to [G]talk to?
[G]Lay down, Sally, no [C]need to leave so soon.
[D]I've been trying all night long just to [G]talk to you.

{c:guitar solo [G] [C]}

{c:verse 3}
I [G]long to see the morning light
Coloring your face so dreami-[C]ly.
So [G]don't you go and say goodbye,
You can lay your worries down and [C]stay with me.
And don't you [D]ever leave.


{soc}
[G]Lay down, Sally, and [C]rest you in my arms.
[D]Don't you think you want someone to [G]talk to?
[G]Lay down, Sally, no [C]need to leave so soon.
[D]I've been trying all night long just to [G]talk to you.

[G]Lay down, Sally, and [C]rest you in my arms.
[D]Don't you think you want someone to [G]talk to?
[G]Lay down, Sally, no [C]need to leave so soon.
[D]I've been trying all night long just to [G]talk to you.
