Lay Me Down Acordes

	  
           G 
I’ll never walk away from this 

I’ll pull you closely to my chest 
       D 
With a father’s breaking heart 
              G 
I’ll walk you one last time into the dark 

             G 
There are no reasons to explain 

A solid kill but there’s no blame 
             D 
There are no answers though I pray 
             G 
I die though this is not my grave 
      Am	    D 
And I lay you down (lay you down) 

G 
I’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 
G 
There’s no need to struggle, there’s no need to struggle 

      Am            D 
And I lay you down (lay 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 
      D 
To Avalon we line the street 
       G 
I only hope 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)
