[Intro]
C E* D* D*


[Verse 1]
G            D*
Lay me down easy
C                     E*
As you make my dyin' bed
C                     E*
I'll keep your memory with me
D*               D*   D^
For as long as I rest
Em             C
As an old tree falls
     G
It's our loss
     D*       D^
They all fall
Em C  Bm Am    (Listen to song for this part)
Lay   me down


[Verse 2]
G           D*
Lay me down easy
C           E*
Deep in the clay
C                    E*
As you touch another soul
D*                     D*  D^
As you say what you'll say
Em              C
And defend then mine
G            D*   D^
I've left my life
Em C  Bm Am
Lay   me down
C (Play for a measure)
Easy


C E* D* D* x2  (My own break in lieu of a mandolin instrumental)


[Verse 3]
G           D*
Lay me down easy
C                 E*
As we meet at the gate
C                    E*
With the Devil on my shoulder
D*               D*   D^
And a poor man's fate
Em            C
Will I win my wings?
G             D*    D^
Will I sleep? Sleep
Em C  Bm Am
Lay   me down
