The Night I Laid You Down

• G

Intro: G C G D C G (2x) 

        G      C     G 
We were young, maybe twenty 
           D     C        G 
You wore a white dressing gown 
         G        C       G 
Drinking wine and dancing slowly 
       D       C        G 
On the night I laid you down 


        Em                      G 
And the moonlight revealed your body 
       Em                                 D 
As the radio played some old Phil Collins song 


       G           C         G 
And we believed in something holy 
       D       C        G 
On the night I laid you down 


       G    C      G 
We had love in our eyes 
       D       C      G 
We had passion in our souls 
          G    C      G 
There was fire in our kisses 
           D          C       G 
But it was not a Phil Collins song 


   Em                                G 
It might have been like Mike and the Mechanics (I don't know who that is) 
         Em                          D 
Yes, you do, it was the other guy in Genesis 


           G         C           G 
I'm pretty sure that it was Phil Collins (No, it wasn't) 
       D       C        G 
On the night I laid you down 


   G                C       G 
Anyway (Anyway), it doesn't matter (Doesn't matter) 
        D                   C         G 
We made love (We made love) until the dawn 
           G                                C      G 
Two hearts beating (Two hearts beating) was all we heard (Oh boy, here we go) 
             D                            C       G 
Besides that old (It was fucking no) Phil Collins song 


         Em                                                G 
Well, it might have been that song from the movie with the jam box (Say Anything) (That's the one) 
        Em                                    D 
Who the hell mixes up Peter Gabriel with Phil Collins? 


                             G                         C            G 
Well fuck you I guess I'm no expert (No you're not) on fucking 90's music (80's) (Whatever) 
       D       C        G 
On the night I laid you down 
       D       C        G 
On the night I laid you down
