Chords

[Intro] D D [Verse 1]
D            A7
[tab]A7                 D
  Count my tears instead of sheep

       D7      G
Say my prayers turn out the light

A7                   D
  But I just lay and weep all night
[Verse 2]
D              A7
  Now I lay me down to cry

                   D
Pray the Lord that I might die

         D7      G
But each morning I awake

A7                 D
  And listen to my poor heart break
[Bridge]
   G                               D
If only I could sleep at night, (I dream)
I'd dream that you would hold me tight
    G
But I can't dream and I can't sleep

E7                  A7
  So, I just lay me down to weep
[Solo] | D | A7 | [Verse 3]
A7                           D
  Sleep won't come to cryin' eyes

                  D7
And my poor heart just can't realize

     G
That now you're in another's keep

A7                     D
  So, I'll just lay me down to weep
[Outro]
                    A7
Sleep won't come to cryin' eyes

A7                   D
  And my heart can't realize

D7               G
  That you're in another's keep

      A7            D
  So, I just lay me down to weep

A7                    D    D
I just lay me down to weep
