"Lay Down the Burden of Your Heart" is a beautifully crafted lullaby. There is a finger
picked beginning and bridge which I have not included.
C
It's a cold old world that we're walking thru
G C
Lay down the burden of your heart
C
Bodies warm as toast walking two by two
G C C F C
Lay down the burden of your heart
CHORUS
C
Lay down the burden of your heart
G C
I know you'll never miss it
F C
Show your daddy where it hurts
F F C C F C C F C
And let your daddy kiss it
C
It's a fine fine line betwixt love and hate
G C
It's tuff to tell the two apart
C
But you know it's love that I offer you
G C C F C
Lay down the burden of your heart
CHORUS
C
It's a cold old world that we're walking thru
G C
They ought to tell you from the start
C
But what strength I have girl I offer you
G C C F C
Lay down the burden of your heart
CHORUS
