Lyrics

Lay, lady, lay,

(G)lay across my (Bm)big brass bed.

(A)Lay, lady, lay,

(G)lay across my (Bm)big brass bed.

(E)Whatever colors you have (A)in your mind,

(E)I'll show them to (F#m)you

(A)and you'll see them shine.

Lay, lady, lay,

(G)lay across my (Bm)big brass bed.

(A)Stay, lady, stay,

(G)stay with your man awhile.

(A)Until the break of day,

(G)let me see you (Bm)make him smile.

(E)His clothes are dirty but his (A)hands are clean,

(E)and you're the best thing that he's (A)ever seen.

Stay, lady, stay,

(G)stay with your man awhile.

(C#m)Why wait any longer for the (E)world (F#m)to (A)begin,

(C#m)you can have your cake and eat (Bm)it,

too. (C#m)Why wait any longer for the (E)one (F#m)you (A)love,

when he's standing

in front of (Bm)you.

(A)Lay, lady, lay,

(G)lay across my (Bm)big brass bed.

(A)Stay, lady, stay,

(G)stay while the night is still ahead.

(E)I long to see you in the (A)morning light,

(E)I long to reach for you (A)in the night.

Stay, lady, (C#m)stay,

(G)stay while the night is still ahead.
