[Intro]
C/G C/G C/G C/G
[Verse 1]
C/G Fmaj7
A little rest for a spell
C/G Fmaj7
A little water from your well
Am F C/G G
A little shade from the shade of your door
C/G Fmaj7
That is all that I need
Am F
And I believe those might be
C/G F C/G G
The truest words that I've ever said before
[Chorus]
Am F C/G G
Hey make me down a pallet on your floor
Am F C/G G
Hey make me down a pallet on your floor
[Verse 2]
C/G Fmaj7
Just let me roll out my bed
C/G Fmaj7
At the foot of your bed
Am F C/G G
And although I am hoping for more
C/G Fmaj7
That is all that I need
Am F
And I believe those might be
C/G F C/G G
The truest words that I've ever said before
[Chorus]
Am F C/G G
Hey make me down a pallet on your floor
Am F C/G G
Hey make me down a pallet on your floor
[Bridge]
Fmaj7 Fmaj7
Somebody came and picked you up
C/G C/G
In a champagne limousine
F F
And tried to buy your love with stuff
C/G C/G
That he found in a magazine
F F
Remember us running through the stubble fields
C/G C/G
That was just before the fold
F F
Remember how loud that thunder was,
C/G C/G
And how soft that bed of straw?
F F
How soft that bed of straw.
F
And I want you and that's all.

[Verse 3]
C/G Fmaj7
I know that the big city lights
C/G Fmaj7
Are the kind that you like
Am Fmaj7 C/G G
And you dream of Detroit and New York
C/G F
But just roll out my bed
C/G F
At the foot of your bed
Am F C/G G
And you’ll know just what I’m dreaming for
[Chorus]
Am Fmaj7 C/G G
That you’ll make me down a pallet on your floor
Am Fmaj7 C/G G
That you’ll make me down a pallet on your floor
[Outro]
Am F
Hey make me down, make me down
C/G G
Make me down, Make me down
Am F C/G G
Make me down a pallet on your floor
Am F
Hey make me down, make me down
C/G G
Make me down, Make me down
Am F C/G G C/G
Make me down a pallet on your floor
