G             C         D       G
I've spent my life, looking for you 
           C          D       F
Finding my way wasn't easy to do 
      D                          G      G7
But I knew there was you all the while   
    C                     D
And it's been worth every mile 
G          G7           C
Lay down beside me, and love me and hide  me 
G                                    D
Kiss all the hurtin' of this world  away 
G          G7         C
Hold me so close that I feel your  heartbeat 
    G          D       G
And don't ever wander away 
 
Mornings and evenings; all were the same 
 
And there was no music 'til I heard your  name 
 
But I knew when I saw your smile 
 
Now I can rest for awhile 
 
Lay down beside me, and love me and hide  me 
 
Kiss all the hurtin' of this world away 
 
Hold me so close that I feel your  heartbeat 
 
And don't ever wander away 
G   G7     C
Lay down beside me,  
G                                    D
Kiss all the hurtin' of this world  away 
G    G7    C
Hold me so close  
    G          D       G
And don't ever wander away
