Lay Down Your Arms

F
Stop this war between our hearts
Bb C F
Let’s end this trouble and fighting that’s tearing us apart
F7 Bb
Let’s make peace between us two,
F C F
Lay down your arms, I surrender to you

Cease that fire in a torch of hate
Let’s put out those flames that burn, let’s not debate
To conflict is wrong to do
Lay down your arms, I surrender to you

C Bb F
Lay down your arms, don’t fight no more and give in
C G C
Lay down your arms, our truce (?) and both side will win

Verse 1 +:
Lay down your arms, I surrender to you
