[Chorus]
G D F G Lay down, lay down, lay it all down G D Let your white birds smile up F G at the ones who stand and frown G D F G Lay down, lay down, lay it all down G D Let your white birds smile up F Em at the ones who stand and frown
[Verse 1]
Em D Em We were so close there was no room Em D Em We bled inside each others wounds Em D Em We all had caught the same disease Em D Em We all sang the songs of peace
[Chorus]
G D F G Lay down, lay down, lay it all down G D Let your white birds smile up F G at the ones who stand and frown G D F G Lay down, lay down, lay it all down G D Let your white birds smile up F Em at the ones who stand and frown
[Bridge]
Em D A Em So raise your candles high Em G D A Em Cos if you don't we could stay black against the night Em D A Em Oh raise them higher again Em G D A Em Then if you do we could stay dry against the rain
[Chorus]
G D F G Lay down, lay down, lay it all down G D Let your white birds smile up F G at the ones who stand and frown G D F G Lay down, lay down, lay it all down G D Let your white birds smile up F Em at the ones who stand and frown
[Verse 2]
Em D Em We were so close there was no room Em D Em We bled inside each others wounds Em D Em We all had caught the same disease Em D Em We all sang the songs of peace Em D Em Some came to sing some came to pray Em D Em Some came to keep the dark away
[Bridge]
Em D A Em So raise your candles high Em G D A Em Cos if you don't we could stay black against the night Em D A Em Oh raise them higher again Em G D A Em Then if you do we could stay dry against the rain
[Chorus]
G D F G Lay down, lay down, lay it all down G D Let your white birds smile up F G at the ones who stand and frown G D F G Lay down, lay down, lay it all down G D Let your white birds smile up F Em at the ones who stand and frown.
