As I Lay Me Down

G D C D Em C it felt like springtime on this february morning G D G D in the courtyard birds were singing your praise C D Em C i'm still recalling things you said to make me feel G D alright, i carry them with me today now G D C D G D C as i lay me down to sleep, yes i pray, that you will hold me dear D G D C D G though i'm far away, i whisper your name, into the sky D C D and i will wake up happy G D C D Em C i wonder why -- i feel so high, while i'm not above my sorrow G D G heavy hearted 'til you call my name D C D Em and it sounds like churchbells or the whistle of a train C G D on a summer evening I want to meet you there, i'm barely breathing... Chorus 2x G D C D G it's not too near for me, like a flower i need the rain D C D G though it's not real to me, every season has its change D C and i will see you when the sun comes out again Chorus 2x
