Thats Where I Lay Down

• G

G 
Spring rain left when I first met you 
D                                          Em 
With your long eyelashes and your blush of youth  
Em 
You tell the truth and you do your best 
G       C 
But you can't see the things that you never have discovered yet 
C                                       G 
Oh it's like that when you're lovin and young 
         D                               Em 
From the back the mind to the tip of the tongue 
Em 
The kiss on your lips, your fingertips 
G                                                   C 
And I'd make the same choice if I had to do it once again 
D                  G 
That's where I lay down 
                              C 
That's where I'm gonna lay my head 
C                       G 
When there is no bed in any town 
        D                            Em 
And the summer's turned the grass to brown 
D                  G 
That's where I lay down 

G 
So I worked the line, I made our life 
D                                            Em 
And a good time woman became my wife 
Em 
Good as an oak through the joy and the mess 
G       C 
But you never know you're leavin til you're lookin back at what you've left 
C                                       G 
Standin in the doorway open wide  
         D                               Em 
In front of the pack you left inside 
Em 
Spring into summer, summer to fall 
G                                                   C 
It's your sun-kissed body and honey I can't take it all 
D                  G 
That's where I lay down 
                              C 
That's where I'm gonna lay my head 
C                       G 
When there is no bed in any town 
        D                            Em 
And the summer's turned the grass to brown 
D                  G 
That's where I lay down 
G 
I don't know if love comes and goes 
D                                            Em 
Or if it's rocksteady and it's me who roams 
Em 
I'm coming and a going, I'm passin through 
G       C 
And I'm countin the miles until I'm headin back to you 
C                                       G 
Oh livin the life I guess I wanted to  
         D                               Em 
With my pack on my back and my dusty shoes 
Em 
With your love in my pocket, I'm keepin it safe 
G                                                   C 
And I'm carryin it home to you darling now and I can't wait 
D                  G 
That's where I lay down 
                              C 
That's where I'm gonna lay my head 
C                       G 
When there is no bed in any town 
        D                            Em 
And the summer's turned the grass to brown 
D                  G 
That's where I lay down
