As I stand on [F#m] the river bridge, [Em] silent on this thirsty [Bm] ridge, [Em]
no more [Bm] birds will sing [F#m] for me on this [E] desperate day.
And I've [Bm] walked far [F#m] to make it here, I know my [E] path is [F#m] plain and [Bm] clear, I will take to rest a final time [Em] on that place.
So
[E]
[A] [B] [F#m]
[E] [Bm]
[F#m]
take [Bm] me back to where I [F#m] want to be, when you're [E] young there's a [F#m] melody, [Bm] winds that blow, to the whole hood in [E] the west.
All [Bm] the trees shake like [F#m] they bow, rain [E] like they all know us by name, you'll be called to me [F#m] once more before [E] I go.
[G] Ooh, [D] lay down, lay low, [G] they [Bm] say it's quiet [A] there.
[G] Ooh,
[D] lay down, lay low, [G] and I want [Bm] to finally [A] fall down, fall down.
[Bm] Don't believe everything [F#m] that you hear [E] about angels drawing [Bm] near, but I hold on to [F#m] a ghost who knows [E] my name.
[Bm] Mornings take me by [F#m] surprise, he's [E] dreaming
[Bm] lies and keeping miracles [F#m] every moment of every [E] day.
[G] Ooh, lay down, [D]
lay low, [G] they [Bm] say it's quiet [A]
there.

Ooh, [D] lay down, lay low, [G] and I [Bm] want to finally [A] fall down, fall down.
