Lay Me Down ~ Hanson G IÂ’ll never walk away from this IÂ’ll pull you closely to my chest D With a fatherÂ’s breaking heart G IÂ’ll walk you one last time into the dark G There are no reasons to explain A solid kill but thereÂ’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 IÂ’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 ThereÂ’s no need to struggle, thereÂ’s no need to struggle Am D And I lay you down (lay you down) G DonÂ’t you cry no more Am D G I lay me down (lay me down) D G MmmÂ…Ohhhh D C G Well, IÂ’m not ready, IÂ’m not ready for this D C G Oh, IÂ’m not ready, IÂ’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 youÂ’re finally at rest D G IÂ’m not ready for this (IÂ’m not ready, I'm not ready) Am D I lay you down (lay you down) G DonÂ’t you cry no more (IÂ’m not ready, IÂ’m not ready) Am D I lay me down (lay me down) Am D IÂ’d gladly lay me down (lay me down)
