D
Lay me down easy
A
in the valley or the pines
G
The Green River gorge
D A
above the South Carolina line
D
Fields filled with gold and
A
junkyards and the rows
G
Lay me down easy
D A G
when it's my time to go
[Chorus]
G D
When you come for me
A
Let the mountains
G
hold my bones
D
There's a place for me
A G
Let me lie down with you in the cove
[Verse 2]
D
Mama, I dreamed that
A
I had no hand to hold
G
And the land I cut my teeth on
D A
wouldn't let me call it home
D
So lay me down easy
A
in the valley or the pines
G
Tell me that you'll be there waiting
D A G
standing in the light.
[Chorus]
G D
When you come for me
A
Let the mountains
G
hold my bones
D
There's a place for me
A G
Let me lie down with you in the cove
[Hold for an extra mesaure]
A
[Chords over piano sol]
D A G D A D A G D A
[Chorus]
G D
When you come for me
A
Let the mountains
G
hold my bones
D
There's a place for me
A G
Let me lie down with you in the cove
[Chorus]
G D
When you come for me
A
Let the mountains
G
hold my bones
D
There's a place for me
A G
Let me lie down with you in the cove
