G           D
Layin' on my back
                    A
In the newly mown grass
 G               D
Rain is coming down
                             A
But I know the clouds will pass
 D
You bring me tea
                      A
Say "the babe's a-sleepin'"
C          G
Lay down beside me
G                  A     G  A
Love ain't for keeping

[Verse 2]
  G                 D
Black ash from the foundry
             A
Hangs like a hood
 G                 D
But the air is perfumed
                   A
By the burning firewood
 D
The seeds are bursting
                 A
The spring is seeping
C          G
Lay down beside me
G                  A     G  A
Love ain't for keeping

[Bridge]
  C         G
Lay down beside me
                 A     G  A
Love ain't for keeping

[Otro]
C          G
Lay down beside me
G                  A     G  A
Love ain't for keeping
C             G
Lay down my darling
G                  A     G  A
Love ain't for keeping
