verse 1 - Kenny)

There'^Fs a lot of ways of sayin what I wanna say to you There's ^G7songs and poems and promises and ^Fdreams, that might come ^Ftrue

But I won't talk of starry skies or moonlight on the ground

I'll ^G7come right out and tell yaI'd just ^Flove to lay ya down

(chorus)

Lay ya ^Fdown and softly whisper, pretty love words in your ear Lay ya ^G7down and tell ya all the things a ^Fwoman loves to ^Fhear

I'll let you know how much it means just havin you around

Oh ^G7darlin how I'd ^Flove to lay ya ^Fdown

(verse 2 - Conway)

There's so ^Fmany ways your sweet love's made this house into a home You've ^G7got a way of doin little ^Fthings that turn me ^Fon

Like standin in the kitchen, in your faded cotton gown

Withy your ^G7hair all up in curlers, I'd still ^Flove to lay you ^Fdown

(chorus)

Lay ya ^Fdown and softly whisper, pretty love words in your ear Lay ya ^G7down and tell ya all the things a ^Fwoman loves to ^Fhear

I'll let you know how much it means just havin you around

Oh ^G7darlin how I'd ^Flove to lay ya ^Fdown

(verse 3 - Kenny)

When a ^Fwhole lot of decembers, are sh^Fowin in your face Your ^G7auburn hair has faded and ^Fsilver takes it's ^Fplace

You'll be just as lovely, and I'll still be around

And if I can I ^G7know that I'll still ^Flove to lay you ^Fdown

(chorus)

Lay ya ^Fdown and softly whisper, pretty love words in your ear Lay ya ^G7down and tell ya all the things a ^Fwoman loves to ^Fhear

I'll let you know how much it means just havin you around

Oh ^G7darlin how I'd ^Flove to lay ya ^Fdown
