I'd Just Love To Lay You Down

Chords

Standard

There's a [D] lot of ways of sayin' what I want to say to you.
     There's [A7] songs and poems and promises and [G] dreams that might
     come
     [D ] true,
     But I won't talk of starry skies or moonlight on the ground,
     I'll come right out and tell ya I'd just [A7] love to lay you down
     [D].

     (CHORUS)
      [D] Lay you down and softly whisper pretty love words in your ear,
     lay ya [A7] down and tell ya all the things a [G] woman loves to [D]
     hear,
     I'll let you know how much it means just havin' you around,
     Oh Darlin' how I'd [A7] love to lay ya [D] down.

     There's so [D] many ways your sweet love's made this house into a
     home,
     You've [A7] got a way of doin' little [G] things that turn me [D] on.
     Like standin' in the kitchen, in your faded cotton gown, with your
     hair all up in curlers, I'd still [A7] love to lay you [D] down.

     (REPEAT CHORUS)

     When a [D] whole lot of Decembers are showin' in your face,
     Your [A7] auburn hair has faded and [G] silver takes it's [D] place,
     You'll be just a lovely, and I'll still be around, and if I can I know
     that I'll still [A7] love to lay you down.

     (REPEAT CHORUS)

     (KEY CHANGE)

     Lay you [C] down and softly whisper pretty love words in your ear,
     lay ya [G] down and tell ya all the things my [F] woman loves to [C]
     hear,
     I'll let you know how much it means just havin' you around,
     Oh Darlin' how I'd [G] love to lay ya [C] down.
