Lay down [G] your weary [C] tune, [G] lay down, [Em] lay down [C] the song [D] you strum, [C] and rest [G] yourself near [Em] the strength [C] of strings.
No voice [G] can [D] hope [C] to hum, [G] [D]
struck by [G] the sounds [C] before [G] the sun.
[Em] I knew [C] the night [D] had gone, [C] the morning [G] breeze like [Em] a [C] bugle blew.
Against the [D] drums [Em] of the dawn, [D] lay down [G] your weary [C] tune, [G] lay down, [Em] lay down [C] the song [D] you strum, [C] and rest [G] yourself near [Em] the strength [C] of strings.
No voice can hope to hum, [D] the ocean wild like [C] a cauldron flayed.
[Em] [C] Seaweed's woven [D] strands, the crashing waves like [Em] the [C] cymbals crashed.
Against the [D] rocks [Em] and the sands, lay down [G] your weary [C] tune, [G] lay down, [Em] lay down [C] the song [D] you strum, [C] and rest [G] yourself near [Em] the strength [C] of strings.
No voice [G] can [D] hope [C] to hum.
[G] I [D]
stood [G] unwound beneath the sky, [Em] clouds [C] unbound [D] by lords.
[G] The crying ring like a trumpet [C] sang.
And as [G] for [D] your [Em] work, close, lay down [G] your [C] weary tune, [G] lay down, [Em] lay down the [G] song you [D] strum, [G] and rest yourself near the [Em] strength of [C] strings.
No voice [G] can [D] hope [C] to hum.
[G] The [D]
last [G] of leaves [C] fell from [G] the trees, crumpled [C] to a new [D] love's breast.
[C] The branches [G] fell like a [C] banjo blade.
The weeds [G] that [D] [Em] fizzled the best, lay down [G] your [Cm] weary tune, [G] lay down, lay down the song you [D] strum, [Gm] and rest yourself near the strength [C] of [Bm] strings.
[Am]
[G] No voice can [D] hope [C] to hum.
[G] I [D]
gazed [G] down in [C] the [G] river's mill, [Em] watched [C] its winding strum.
[D] [G] The water's smooth [Em] ran like [C] a hymn, and like [G] a heart did hum.
Lay down your weary tune, lay down, lay down the [D] song you strum, [G] and rest yourself near the [C] strength of strings.
No voice [G] can [D] hope [Em] to hum.
