xLay Me Down (The Dirty Heads Featuring Rome) http://www.dirtyheads.com/fr_index.cfm [Intro] G A Ho-woah-oo-oh-ho-ho-oo-woah- no A G Hoo-oo-woo-oo-oo G A Ho-oh-oo-woah-oh-oh-oo-woah-no- oo A G Hoo-woo- [Verse 1: Duddy B] Em Well this is how it starts two lovers in the dark B On the run from the one that they call Sheriff Sparks Em Six guns by the side and bullets ‘round their waist B Two shots to the sky signal sound for the chase Em The safe was nearly empty and they were nearly free B But was seen by the wood eye of the mean Billy Greene Em And he screamed at the top of his lungs “they’re on the run! B It’s the two wildsiders grab yer holsters and yer guns!” [Chorus: Rome] G C I said I wish that we could stay here C G But I fear our time has come G C Oh we can ride out in the darkness C G Chasing the rising sun G C We gotta pack our bags this instant C G We’re heading southbound to the next town G C And if we arrive there so safely G C Baby you can lay me down G C Lay me down G C Lay me down G C Lay me down [Verse 2: Dirty J] Em Well it’s the story of the two always on the move B They got nothing left to lose ‘cept their guns and they wounds Em Now they’re crossing borders sheriff’s posse on their tail B They rather die together than be stuck up in a cell Em They drank up all the whiskey and they partied every night B Like it could be the last the bounty said to shoot on sight Em So they chased the endless summer though it came with a price B They wouldn’t stop running ‘til they found a paradise Em But the Sheriff finally found ‘em with his eyes seeing red B So the lovers had to shoot him down and fill him full of lead Em They were finally free to find a place to lay their head B And when they finally did he looked at her and then he said: [Chorus 2: Rome] G C I said I think that we can stay here C G ‘Cus I feel our time has come G C And we can walk down to the ocean C G And sit with the rising sun G C So unpack your bags this instant C G No more running from town to town G C And now that we’ve arrived so safely G C Baby you can lay me down G C Lay me down G C Lay me down G C Lay me down [Verse 3: Dirty J] G G G C Well you’re my green eyed girl and I’ve been running round with you G G G C It’s the afternoon and we got nothing left to do G G G C So wipe the dirt off or take yer shirt off G G G C And we should go hit the cantina we got work off G G G C I said it’s hot outside let me go swimming in your eyes G G G C We’ve been running for a while why’oncha lay down make me smile G G G C I could never ask for nothing better than this G It’s just tequila and the beach that’s why it’s salty when we kiss [Chorus 2: Rome] G C I said I think that we can stay here C G ‘Cus I feel our time has come G C And we can walk down to the ocean C G And sit with the rising sun G C So unpack your bags this instant C G No more running from town to town G C And now that we’ve arrived so safely G C Baby you can lay me down G C Lay me down G C Lay me down no G C Lay me down G C Lay me down… [Outro] G C G C G C G C G C G C G C G C
