Couldn't find a version of this song and have been enjoying all TGA tabs uploaded by

others for the

last 15 (!) years so tried making one myself. Happy to hear feedback (especially that

solo).

[Intro]

Am G F C x4

[Verse]

Am G

F C

And she doesn't know my name

Am G

But I'm afraid that if I see her

F C

I will not see you again

Am G

Sometimes she passes by the window

F C

Her skin is pearl and pale and ghost

Am G

And I hear someone crying sometimes

F C G

Like there was really something wrong

[Chorus]

C G

I hear her singin', "Lay down in my arms

Am F G

Lover, you will one day miss all my charms

C G

So come on, lay down in my arms

Am F G

Sleep, baby, sleep, the cruel morning is not very far"

[Instrumental]

Am G F C x2

[Verse]

Am G

I never see her watch the sunrise

F C

I hear a record lightly play

Am G

Sometimes I think I hear some movement

F C

Like something can't get away

Am G

Now there's a picture in a Bible

F C

That I swear I've seen before

Am G

Where she was bathing on the rooftop

F C G

While David looked on

[Chorus]

C G

I hear her singin', "Lay down in my arms

Am F G

Lover, you will one day miss all my charms

C G

So come on, lay down in my arms

Am F G

Sleep, baby, sleep, the cruel morning is not very far"

[Solo]

C G

I hear her singin', "Lay down in my arms

Am F G

Lover, you will one day miss all my charms

C G

So come on, lay down in my arms

Am F G

Sleep, baby, sleep, the cruel morning is not very far"

[Instrumental]

Am G F C x2

[Outro]

Am G

I live in the room above her

F C

And I never make a sound

Am G

Except the matches for the candles

F C

And the radio turned down
