Lay It Down(Chords)

	        

verse 1: 
Em                C 
To every son and daughter 
D            E 
Wayward and long gone 
Em             C 
The love of a father 
D                E      Cmaj7 
Will leave the light on 

verse 2: 
Em                  C 
Tried to throw you off track 
D              E 
A needle in a haystack 
Em                    C 
I don't know how you found me 
D                  E        Cmaj7 
Or why you let me come back 

Pre-Chorus 1: 
Em             C        Am        D                 Em   
'Cause it's a long way home when all you're left to carry 
       C        Am           Em                  D        
Is a heart of stone and the weight of most the world 
And I'd like to... 

 
Em       C 
Lay it down a little 
Em       C 
Lay it down a lot 
G                D          Em 
I don't want to hold it anymore 
         C       Em 
Lay it down in pieces 
Em       C 
Lay it down in whole 
G                 D                       
Everything I've carried on my own 
Em                  C 
Lay it down, lay it down 
Em                  C 
Lay it down, lay it down 


verse 3: 
Em           C 
I spent your money 
D              E 
Living on the fringes 
Em               C 
But you threw a party for me 
D                 E 
Invited all your big friends 

Pre-Chorus 2: 
Em           C        Am          D      Em 
And I have learned a little bit about a heavy load 
           C         Am              Em                  D      
All that gleams and glitters is not worth its weight in gold 
And I know I should... 

Em       C 
Lay it down a little 
Em       C 
Lay it down a lot 
G                D          Em 
I don't want to hold it anymore 
         C       Em 
Lay it down in pieces 
Em       C 
Lay it down in whole 
G                 D                       
Everything I've carried on my own 
Em                  C 
Lay it down, lay it down 
Em                  C 
Lay it down, lay it down
