I took one listen to this song and knew I had to learn how to play it. So, I did. It's easy. Just listen to the song for proper strumming and rhythm, and enjoy! If you need further, you can youtube it. A couple of videos have clear views of the chords. Enjoy! Lay Me Down ~ Hanson

I’ll neve^Gr walk away from this I’ll pull you closely to my chest With a ^Dfather’s breaking heart I’ll walk yo^Gu one last time into the dark

There are no ^Greasons to explain A solid kill but there’s no blame There are no ^Danswers though I pray I die though ^Gthis is not my grave Am D And I lay you down (lay you down)

^GI’ll carry you, child to a place where you can rest Between tears that seep into the heavens and as I put you down to bed D It tears me into pieces watching you fight to fill your lungs with breath ^GThere’s no need to struggle, there’s no need to struggle

And I ^Amlay you down (^Dlay you down) G Don’t you cry no more Am D G I lay me down (lay me down)

D G Mmm…Ohhhh D C G Well, I’m not ready, I’m not ready for this D C G Oh, I’m not ready, I’m not ready for this G They'll ask no branches from this soil My broken spirit steals my voice D I have no secrets to my name G Only the shadows hide my shame And so I lift you upon my shoulder Inside a splintered wooden chest

To Ava^Dlon we line the street I only ^Ghope that you’re finally at rest

D G I’m not ready for this (I’m not ready, I'm not ready) Am D I lay you down (lay you down) G Don’t you cry no more (I’m not ready, I’m not ready) Am D I lay me down (lay me down) Am D I’d gladly lay me down (lay me down)
