Key: G
Introduction:
G Em C D7
Sitting in the sunshine, trying to sing the blues away
G C D
Wondering why they came and how long they'll stay
G Em C D7
Picking out a little tune I never heard before
Bm C7M D7
Yes, and wishing you were here at the door
G C D7
Won't you lay me down easy
G C D7
Lay me down easy in my mind
G Em
'Cause babe, I've got the blues
C D7
And there's something you can do
Bm C D7 G
You can lay me down easy in my mind, in my mind
Em C D7
Well babe, you know how it is when you wake up feeling old
G C D
You wonder if you're doing what you should
G Em C D7
And everyone around you, they can't read what's on your mind
Bm C7M D7
And they might not want to if they could
G C D7
Won't you lay me down easy
G C D7
Lay me down easy in my mind
G Em
'Cause babe, I've got the blues
C D7
And there's something you can do
Bm C D7 G
You can lay me down easy in my mind, in my mind
Em C D7
Now the seasons of my life, they go turning through the days
G C D
I've seen bitter winters come and go
G Em C D7
And here I am in sunny times not feeling like I could
Bm C7M D7
And wondering when the winds will start to blow
G C D7
Won't you lay me down easy
G C D7
Lay me down easy in my mind
G Em
'Cause babe, I've got the blues
C D7
And there's something you can do
Bm C D7 G
You can lay me down easy in my mind, in my mind
