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

Lay down, lay down, lay it all down..let your white birds smile up
Em
at the ones who stand and frown.
