If it's wrong, fix it.. but this is how I play it, with a few self touches. Enjoy. [Intro] G Am Em D Bm B [Verse 1]
Am                D            G
Don't look so sad, I know it's over

              Am D                       G
But life goes on and this world keeps on turning, yeah

              C       D                      G
Let's just be glad we had this time to spend together

           C        Am                          D
There is no need to watch the bridges that we're burning
[Chorus]
          G                              D
Lay your head (lay your head) upon my pillow, sweet baby

            D                            G      Am    D
Hold your warm and tender body close to mine

          G                                 C
Hear the whisper of the raindrops rolling softly

              Cm                          D
Against my window, yeah, oh, late at night

                                    D    E
Make believe you love me one more time

         G               Am          D
For the good times

          G
For the good times
[Verse 2] Am
               D                     G
I'll get along, and I'm sure you'll find another
But baby please remember
          Am                                        D
I'll be here (I'll be here), I'm gonna stay right here

                              G
If you should find you ever need me, yeah

              C          D            G
Don't say a word about tomorrow or forever and ever and ever and ever

            C               Am                 D
There'll be time enough for severance when you leave me, yeah

        G                Am     D
For the good times, yeah

        G            Am
For the good times
[Chorus]
D        G                             D
Lay your head (lay your head) upon my pillow
Oh, just this one time, girl, one time
            D                           G         Am   D
Hold your warm and tender body close to mine, yeah, oh baby

            G
Won't you hear the whisper, hear the whisper

                                             C               Cm
Of the raindrops, of the raindrops, rolling softly, softly against my window

                     D
All you gotta do is make believe

                                                       D
All you gotta do is make believe you love me one more time

        G                      Am    D
For the good times, yeah baby

        G            Am
For the good times
And here's what you oughta do is
D          G           D
Lay your head upon my pillow

              D                                        G
I just wanna hold your warm and tender body close to mine
