Lyrics
Lay down, (D)lay down, (F)lay it all (G)down,
let your white birds (D)smile up at the (F)ones who stand and (G)frown.
Lay down, (D)lay down, (F)lay it all (G)down,
let your white birds (D)smile up at the (F)ones who stand and (Em)frown.
We were so (D)close, there was no (Em)room,
We bled (D)inside each other's (Em)wounds.
We all had (D)caught the same (Em)disease,
and we all (D)sang the songs of (Em)peace.
(G)Lay down, (D)lay down, (F)lay it all (G)down,
let your white birds (D)smile up at the (F)ones who stand (G)and frown.
Lay down, (D)lay down, (F)lay it all (G)down,
let your white birds (D)smile up at the (F)ones who stand and (Em)frown.
So (D)raise the candles (Em)high, 'cause if you (G)don't,
we could stay (D)black (A)against the (Em)night.
So (D)raise them (A)higher (Em)again, and if you (G)do we could stay (D)dry (A)against the (Em)rain.
(Em)peace. Some came to (D)sing, some came to (Em)pray.
Some came to (D)keep the dark (Em)away.
So (D)raise the candles (Em)high, 'cause if you (G)don't,
we could stay (D)black (A)against the (Em)night.
So (D)raise them (A)higher (Em)again, and if you (G)do we could stay (D)dry (A)against the (Em)rain.
(G)Lay down, (D)lay down, (F)lay it all (G)down,
let your white birds (D)smile up at the (F)ones who stand and (G)frown.
You got to Lay down, (D)lay down,
(F)lay it all (G)down, let your white birds (D)smile up at the (F)ones who stand and (G)frown.
You got to
