Chords

[Chorus] N.C. N.C. Lay down the song you strum N.C. And rest yourself beneath the strength of strings N.C. No voice can hope to hum [Verse]
              D        G        D
Struck by the sounds before the sun

           Bm        A
I knew the night had gone

    D                           G
The morning breeze like a bugle blew

            D  A     D
Against the drums of dawn
[Chorus]
                    G         D
Lay down your weary tune, lay down

             Bm       A
Lay down the song you strum

             D                            G
And rest yourself beneath the strength of strings

             D A     D    G  D
No voice can hope to hum
[Verse]
                        G     D
The ocean wild, like an organ played

            Bm        A
The seaweed wove it's strands

             D                  G
The crashing waves like cymbals clashed

            D  A      D
Against the rocks and sands
[Verse]
                  G         D
I stood unwound beneath the skies

             Bm       A
And clouds unbound by laws

           D                   G
The crying rain like a trumpet sang

              D A    D
And asked for no__ applause
[Chorus]
                    G         D
Lay down your weary tune, lay down

             Bm       A
Lay down the song you strum

             D                            G
And rest yourself beneath the strength of strings

             D A     D
No voice can hope to hum
[Instrumental] G D Bm A D G D A D [Verse]
                        G        D
The last of leaves fell from the trees

               Bm         A
And clung to a new love's breast

             D                 G
The branches bare like a banjo played

                  D  A     D
To the winds that listened best
[Verse 5]
                    G       D
I gazed down in the river's mirror

                Bm      A
And watched its winding stream

          D                 G
The water smooth ran like a tune

           D A      D
And like a harp did hum
[Chorus] N.C. Lay down your weary tune, lay down N.C. Lay down the song you strum N.C. And rest yourself beneath the strength of strings N.C. No voice can hope to hum [Chorus]
D                   G         D
Lay down your weary tune, lay down

             Bm       A
Lay down the song you strum

             D                            G
And rest yourself beneath the strength of strings

             D A     D
No voice can hope to hum
N.C. No voice can hope to hum
