        CHORUS
ELord lay me down
EIn the evening
ALowered in the ground
EWhen I'm cold
ELord lay me down
EAnd when I'm leaving
B7Carry on my very Asoul
        VERSE 1
EScripture say that in the last days the light of rain comes
EI try to see it now, I climb the ladder rung
AWe need that old dream, youngin's gotta prophecize
EPeople need a glimpse of hope if only through the prophet's eyes
EHeaven knows that people perish when their vision dies
EFear will kill you man and unbelief will paralyze
ABut we prepared to die that ain't but a journey home
B7But while we still survive, lordy let your will be known
EThis man before us was a friend and a leader
EA compassionate father and a sturdy believer
ASeems the tender age of fifty just too early to leave us
B7We ain't questionin' your will but God please show us your reasons
        CHORUS
ELord lay me down
EIn the evening
ALowered in the ground
EWhen I'm cold
ELord lay me down
EAnd when I'm leaving
B7Carry on my very Asoul
        VERSE 2- BIG JOE
EAmazing grace, how sweet the sound
EI hope I find some when my time comes around
AThey laid my mama in the ground the morning I was born and now 
EYou're singing that it's evening but the sun ain't gone down
EAnd even now the shadow of this crown 
ERemind me how without the king I wouldn't be around
AAnd something in the sound of this song as we lay me down sounds like
B7Something, but that's so long ago now
EAnd now I'll guard this bar, fight hard for the patrons
EYour king is gone but I carry on the administration
AKnow this: if you need a hand look to these fists
B7Forever and a day they stay clenched, long live the king!
        CHORUS
ELord lay me down
EIn the evening
ALowered in the ground
EWhen I'm cold
ELord lay me down
EAnd when I'm leaving
B7Carry on my very Asoul
ELord lay me down
EIn the evening
ALowered in the ground
EWhen I'm cold
ELord lay me down
EAnd when I'm leaving
B7Carry on my very Asoul

VERSE 1

Scripture say that in the last days the light of rain comes

I try to see it now, I climb the ladder rung

We need that old dream, youngin's gotta prophecize

People need a glimpse of hope if only through the prophet's eyes

Heaven knows that people perish when their vision dies

Fear will kill you man and unbelief will paralyze

But we prepared to die that ain't but a journey home

But while we still survive, lordy let your will be known

This man before us was a friend and a leader

A compassionate father and a sturdy believer

Seems the tender age of fifty just too early to leave us

We ain't questionin' your will but God please show us your reasons

CHORUS

Lord lay me down

In the evening

Lowered in the ground

When I'm cold

Lord lay me down

And when I'm leaving

B7 A

Carry on my very soul

VERSE 2- BIG JOE

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound

I hope I find some when my time comes around

They laid my mama in the ground the morning I was born and now

You're singing that it's evening but the sun ain't gone down

And even now the shadow of this crown

Remind me how without the king I wouldn't be around

And something in the sound of this song as we lay me down sounds like

Something, but that's so long ago now

And now I'll guard this bar, fight hard for the patrons

Your king is gone but I carry on the administration

Know this: if you need a hand look to these fists

Forever and a day they stay clenched, long live the king!

CHORUS

Lord lay me down

In the evening

Lowered in the ground

When I'm cold

Lord lay me down

And when I'm leaving

B7 A

Carry on my very soul

Lord lay me down

In the evening

Lowered in the ground

When I'm cold

Lord lay me down

And when I'm leaving

B7 A

Carry on my very soul
