Lay Down, Lay Low Chords by The Steel Wheels

[Bm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ As I stand on the [F#m] river bridge, [E] silent on this [F#m] thirsty [Bm] _ ridge,
no more birds will [F#m] sing for me on this desperate [E] _
day.
_ _ And [A] I've [Bm] walked far to [F#m] make it here, I know my [E] path is [F#m] plain [Bm] and clear.
I will take to [A] rest a [F#m] final time on [E] that clay. _ _ _ _ _

_ _ _ _ _ [F#m] _ _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ So [Bm] take me back to where [F#m] I want to be, when [E] you're young there's a [Bm] melody. _
_ Winds that blow _ [F#m] from over in the [E] west. _ _ _
And [F#m] all the [Bm] trees shake like [F#m] they bow and pray like [E] they all know us by [Bm]
name.
_ Will they call to me [F#m] once more before [E] I go? _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ Ooh, _ _ _ [D] lay down, lay _ low.
_ [G] _ Ooh, _ _
_ _ [Bm] they say it's [A] quiet there.
_ _ [G] Ooh, _ _ _ _ [D] lay down, lay low.
_ [G] _ _ _ Ooh, _ I [Bm] want to _ finally [A] fall _ down, fall _ down.
_ _ _ _ _ [Bm] Don't believe everything [F#m] that you hear [E] about angels [Bm] drawing near.
But I hold on [F#m] to a ghost who knows my [E] _ name.
_ _ _ [A] Mornings [Bm] take me [F#m] by _ surprise.
These [E] are dreaming [F#m] open [Bm] eyes.
And we make miracles [F#m] every moment of every _ [E] day. _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ Ooh, lay down, [D]
lay _ _ _ low. _ _
[G] _ _ Ooh, lay _ down, [Bm] they say it's quiet [A] _ there.
[G] Ooh, _ _ lay _ down, [D] lay _ _ _ _ low.
_ [G]
Ooh, _ lay down, I [Bm] want to _ finally _ [A] fall down, _ fall _ _ down.

_ [A] _ _ [Bm] _ _ [A] [Bm] As I stand [F#m] on the river bridge, I [E]
recall this [F#m] [Bm] barren ridge.
West winds blow for [F#m] me, a melody [E] today.
_ _ _ _ And [F#m] I've [Bm] walked far [F#m] to make it here.
I know [E] in time I'll [A] see [Bm] it clear.
Some things are gone for [F#m] good, but instant in your [E] mind. _ _ _ _
_ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
