I'D Just Love To Lay You Down
Conway Twitty
Intro: D
[D]There's a lot of ways of sayin', what I want to say to you.
There's so[A]ngs and poems and promises and dr[G]eams that might come [D]true,
But I won't talk of starry skies or moonlight on the ground,
I'll come right out and tell ya, I[A]'d just love to l[G]ay you d[Dai]own.s.
(CHORUS)
[D]Lay you down and softly whisper pretty love words in your ear,
Lay ya d[A]own and tell ya all the things a wo[G]man loves to h[D]ear,
I'll let you know how much it means just havin' you around,
Oh Darlin' how I'd l[A]ove to lay ya d[D]own.
[D]There's so many ways your sweet love's made this house into a home,
You've g[A]ot a way of doin' little th[G]ings that turn me [D]on.
Like standin' in the kitchen, in your faded cotton gown,
With your hair all up in c[A]urlers, I'd still l[G]ove to lay you d[D]own.
REPEAT CHORUS)
[D]When a whole lot of Decembers are showin' in your face,
Your au[A]burn hair has faded and si[G]lver takes it's p[D]lace,
You'll be just a lovely, and I'll still be around,
And if I can I k[A]now that I'll still l[G]ove to lay you d[D]own.
(Repeat Chorus)
(Change Keys, Down 2 steps to "C")
Lay you d[C]own and softly whisper pretty love words in your ear,
Lay ya d[G]own and tell ya all the things my w[F]oman loves to h[C]ear,
I'll let you know how much it means just havin' you around,
Oh Darlin' how I'd l[G]ove to lay ya d[C]own.
(Change Keys, Down 2 steps to "Bb")
Lay you d[Bb]own and softly whisper pretty love words in your ear,
Lay ya d[F]own and tell ya all the things my w[Eb]oman loves to h[Bb]ear,
I'll let you know how much it means just havin' you around,
