Lay down Sally - Eric Clapton

Intro:
A A A A

Verse 1:
A
 There is nothing that is wrong
                                 D
In wanting you to stay here with  me.
A
 I know you've got somewhere to go,
But won't you make yourself at home and 
D                            E7
 stay with me? And don't you  ever leave.

|Chorus:
|A                     D
| Lay down, Sally, and  rest you in my arms.
|E7                                   A
| Don't you think you want someone to  talk to?
|A                    D
| Lay down, Sally, no  need to leave so soon.
|E7                                       A
| I've been trying all night long just to  talk to you.

Verse 2:
A
 The sun ain't nearly on the rise
                                    D
And we still got the moon and stars  above.
A
 Underneath the velvet skies,
                                    D
Love is all that matters. Won't you  stay with me?
              E7
And don't you  ever leave.

Verse 3:
A
 I long to see the morning light
                            D
Coloring your face so dreamily.
   A
So  don't you go and say goodbye,
                                  D
You can lay your worries down and  stay with me.
              E7
And don't you  ever leave.

|Chorus: x2
|A                     D
| Lay down, Sally, and  rest you in my arms.
|E7                                   A
| Don't you think you want someone to  talk to?
|A                    D
| Lay down, Sally, no  need to leave so soon.
|E7                                       A
| I've been trying all night long just to  talk to you.

Outro:
E7                                       A
 I've been trying all night long just to  talk to you 
E7                                       A
 I've been trying all night long just to  talk to you 
[A - Double Strum]
