          Bb5            F5
Sometimes life can be a burden
      Bb5            F5
Tryna stay one step ahead 
           Bb5            F5
I feel the world upon my shoulder each time
     C5                 G5
I'm standing out on the edge

       Bb5            F5
And my hopes have all deserted me
           Bb5               F5
Like they washed away in the sand
        Bb5                   F5
And it's hurting my pride Tryna survive 
      C5               G5
But i know i stand a chance

                 Bb5            F5

(Oh, if you see me falling down)
     F5
Lift me up from the shadows
         C5                    G5
Will you take me away to a better place?
                   Bb5
(And when I'm in my darkest hour)
        F5                      Bb5
You're by my side, to turn the tide,
                    F5
Until the suffering fades.
             D5
When life is getting me down,
C5                             Bb5
getting me down, i'm close to defeat,
                        ( Bb5 - F5 )X2
Come and lay ur hands on me.

(same chords)
Feel this road is getting longer now 
And i'm too far away from home 
Still I gotta keep on moving on 
But I can't do it on my own 
Baby keep my head above water 
Help me swim for my life
'Coz the game is getting harder 
The strain is gettin stronger 
And I can only face the fight 

When you lay your hands 
Oh yeah
'Coz it's the only thing I have that still makes sense

(Oh baby, when I'm calling out) 
Give me love and affection,
Keep telling me, show me the way.
(Oh, if you see me falling down)
Lift me up from the shadows
Will you take me away to a better place?
(And when I'm in my darkest hour)
You're by my side, to turn the tide,
Until the suffering fades.
When life is getting me down,
getting me down, i'm close to defeat,
Come and lay ur hands on me..

          Bb5
'Til I'm healed again,
D5
Rediscovered my strengths,
Bb5                    C5
Those bitter blues are gone...
     Bb5      F5   ( Bb5 - F5 ) x3  C5 - G5
Oh, gone...

(same chords)
(Oh baby, when I'm calling out) 
Give me love and affection,
Keep telling me, show me the way.
(Oh, if you see me falling down)
Lift me up from the shadows
Will you take me away to a better place?
(And when I'm in my darkest hour)
You're by my side, to turn the tide,
Until the suffering fades.
When life is getting me down,
getting me down, i'm close to defeat,
Come and lay ur hands on me.

Come and lay your hands on me.
