Lay It Down Nichole Nordeman
VERSE 1:
[Em]To every son and d[C]aughter
[D]Wayward and l[E]ong gone
[Em]The love of a f[C]ather
[D]Will leave the li[E]ght on[Cmaj7]
VERSE 2:
[Em]Tried to throw you o[C]ff track
[D]A needle in a h[E]aystack
[Em]I don't know how you f[C]ound me
[D]Or why you let me c[E]ome back[Cmaj7]
PRE-CHORUS 1:
[Em]'Cause it's a l[C]ong way h[Am]ome when a[D]ll you're left to [Em]carry
Is a he[C]art of st[Am]one and the w[Em]eight of most the wo[D]rld
And I'd like to...
CHORUS:
[Em]Lay it do[C]wn a little
[Em]Lay it do[C]wn a lot
[G]I don't want to h[D]old it anym[Em]ore
Lay it do[C]wn in pi[Em]eces
[Em]Lay it do[C]wn in whole
[G]Everything I've ca[D]rried on my own
[Em]Lay it down, lay it [C]down
[Em]Lay it down, lay it [C]down
VERSE 3:
[Em]I spent your [C]money
[D]Living on the f[E]ringes
[Em]But you threw a p[C]arty for me
[D]Invited all your b[E]ig friends
PRE-CHORUS 2:
[Em]And I have le[C]arned a l[Am]ittle bit ab[D]out a h[Em]eavy load
All that gl[C]eams and g[Am]litters is not w[Em]orth its weight in g[D]old
And I know I should...
CHORUS:
[Em]Lay it do[C]wn a little
[Em]Lay it do[C]wn a lot
[G]I don't want to h[D]old it anym[Em]ore
Lay it do[C]wn in pi[Em]eces
[Em]Lay it do[C]wn in whole
[G]Everything I've ca[D]rried on my own
[Em]Lay it down, lay it [C]down
[Em]Lay it down, lay it [C]down
