[Dm] [D] [Dm]
We were so [C] close, there was [D] no [Dm] room We [C] bled inside each [D] other's [Dm] womb
We [C] all had caught the [Dm] same disease And [C] we all sang the [D] songs of [Dm] peace
Some came [C] to sing, some [Dm] came to pray Some [C] came to keep the [Dm] dark away
[C] [Fm]
Lay it on down, let your wife The [G] ones who [F] stand and crown you God
[C] [Eb] Lay [F] it on down, let your wife [C] The [Eb] ones [Dm] who stand and crown [C] you God
So raise [G] the [Dm] candles high Tonight [F] [C]
[Dm] again [F] [C]
[Dm] we [F] [C] could stay dry
[Dm] [F] [C]
[Eb] Lay [F] it on down, let your wife [C]

[D] [C]
[D] you God
Said the world on oats and raisins [C] Candles in [D] the rain
And then they lit a fire to the soul [C] Who never knew [D] he had a friend
All men can live as brothers I heard him [C] say
Candles in [D] the rain To be there was to remember
So [C] I'm gonna lay it down again [Dm] I'm gonna [D] lay it down one more time
I'm gonna lay [C] it down, lay [D] it down again I think that men can live as brothers
[Dm] [C] Candles in [Dm] the rain
So [C] raise [G]
the [Dm] candles high Tonight again [F] [C] we could stay black [Dm] against the night
You [F] gotta raise [C] them high [Dm] again And [F] if you do we [C] could stay dry [Dm] against the rain
[F] Lay it down, lay it down [Db] Lay it on down, let your wife
The ones who stand and crown [F] you God
Lay it [C] down, lay it down [Eb] Lay it [F] on down, let your wife
The [C] ones [Eb] [F] who stand and crown you God
Lay [C] it down,
[Eb] lay [F] it on
I think that men can live [C] as brothers
[Db] [Eb] Candles in the rain
