Lay Down Sally by Eric Clapton


A
There is nothing that is wrong
                                 D
In wanting you to stay here with me.
   A
I know you've got somewhere to go,

But won't you make yourself at home and 
D                            E
stay with me? And don't you ever leave.


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


     A
The sun ain't nearly on the rise
                                      D
And we still got the moon and stars above.
A
Underneath the velvet skies,
                                     D
Love is all that matters. Won't you stay with me?
               E
And don't you ever leave.


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

(Guitar Solo  A  D)

   A
I long to see the morning light
                            D
Coloring your face so dreamily.
    A
So don't you go and say goodbye,
                                   D
You can lay your worries down and stay with me.
               E
And don't you ever leave.

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


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