Lay Down Your Head piano leadsheet with chords
Lay down your head and sleep,
sleep. I'll be your pillow, soft and deep.
Leave me your troubles;
I will keep
your days gone by,
your days gone by.
Lay down your head and dream,
dream. You're so much gentler than you seem.
Is there a chance you might redeem my days gone by,
my days gone by?
And oh,
his breath is so warm.
Mine is short,
and my ears are ringing.
Ev'rywhere my skin is singing.
Lay down your head and sleep,
sleep. I will be pleased your soul to keep.
Give yourself over to the deep
of days gone by, of days gone by.
