[Intro]
A# Gm Dm
[Verse]
A# Gm Dm
I used to keep my dark a secret
A# Gm Dm
I used to keep my heart in pieces
A# Gm Dm
He said he liked me better as a mess
A# Gm Dm
He said he wants to save me from myself
[Pre Chorus]
A# Gm
I'm not, not gonna lie
Dm A#
I think, think I could die happy
Gm D
Happy, happy in his eyes
[Chorus]
A# Gm
Lay me down in the river
D
Love me like I'm a sinner
A#
Lay me down
Gm
Lay me down
D
Lay me down
A# Gm
If I drown in the river
D
Will my soul be delivered?
A#
Lay me down
Gm
Lay me down
D
Lay me down
[Verse]
A# Gm Dm
Can't help I'm feeling like a reject
A# Gm Dm
Sometimes I feel so damn derelict
A# Gm Dm
You bathe me in the saltiest of tears
A# Gm D
When I'm sad they show me how to face my fears.
[Pre Chorus]
A# Gm
I'm not, not gonna lie
Dm A#
I think, think I could die happy
Gm D
Happy, happy in his eyes
[Chorus]

Lay me down

Lay me down

Will my soul be delivered?

Lay me down
Gm
Lay me down
D
Lay me down
[Bridge]
A# Gm Dm
Bury all my skeletons and let 'em stay dead
A# Gm Dm
Exercise the demons making homes in my head
A# Gm Dm
And wash away my dirt and wash away this hurt
A# Gm D
And lay me down to rest
[Pre Chorus]
A# Gm
I'm not, not gonna lie
Dm A#
I think, think I could die happy
Gm D
Happy, happy in his eyes
[Chorus]
A# Gm
Lay me down in the river
Dm
Love me like I'm a sinner
A#
Lay me down
Gm
Lay me down
D
Lay me down

If I drown in the river

Will my soul be delivered

Lay me down

Lay me down
D
Lay me down
