[Verse]
EWell, they say your kiss is like forbidden fruit, 
One taAste of your sweet strawberry lips and IE'll be hooked on you, 
They Bsay one day just like a dog, Ayou?ll own me 
I say lay it on Eme 
EI'm six foot four and tAough as a man can Ebe, 
I ain't scAared of much, I'll buck right up, there's a fiEghtin' side of me, 
They Bsay I'll turn to putty and yAou'll mold me, 
Well lay it on Eme, 
[Chorus]
You miAght be more then I can stand, 
AfEter all honey, I?m just one man, 
I miAght wind up sBad, beat down and loEnely, 
But I?m waAtching the way them jeans low ride, 
Your beElly button ring and big blue eyes, 
F#And I can hardly wait for you to hBold me, 
Come on and lay it on Eme, 
[Verse]
EWell, that "Born To Break Hearts" taAttoo don't faze Eme, 
So, stAroll your sweet self over here and bring me tEo my knees, 
And we'll Bsee who comes out on top, now wAon't we, 
Lay it on Eme, 
[Chorus]
You miAght be more then I can stand, 
AfEter all honey, I?m just one man, 
I miAght wind up sBad, beat down and loEnely, 
But I?m waAtching the way them jeans low ride, 
Your beElly button ring and big blue eyes, 
F#And I can hardly wait for you to hBold me, 
Come on and lay it on Eme, 
[Verse]
EWell, lay down the law or lay it all on the line, 
Girl AI don't care as long as you lay your body next tEo mine, 
And if yoBu?re afraid of falling, darlin' doAn't be 
Come on and lay it on Eme, 
A                E-A   
I say lay it on me, 
E                 A-E
Come on lay it on me

[Intro]

E-A (3x)

[Verse]

Well, they say your kiss is like forbidden fruit,

A E

One taste of your sweet strawberry lips and I'll be hooked on you,

B A

They say one day just like a dog, you?ll own me

I say lay it on me

E A E

I'm six foot four and tough as a man can be,

A E

I ain't scared of much, I'll buck right up, there's a fightin' side of me,

B A

They say I'll turn to putty and you'll mold me,

Well lay it on me,

[Chorus]

You might be more then I can stand,

After all honey, I?m just one man,

A B E

I might wind up sad, beat down and lonely,

But I?m watching the way them jeans low ride,

Your belly button ring and big blue eyes,

F# B

And I can hardly wait for you to hold me,

Come on and lay it on me,

[Verse]

E A E

Well, that "Born To Break Hearts" tattoo don't faze me,

A E

So, stroll your sweet self over here and bring me to my knees,

B A

And we'll see who comes out on top, now won't we,

Lay it on me,

[Chorus]

You might be more then I can stand,

After all honey, I?m just one man,

A B E

I might wind up sad, beat down and lonely,

But I?m watching the way them jeans low ride,

Your belly button ring and big blue eyes,

F# B

And I can hardly wait for you to hold me,

Come on and lay it on me,

[Verse]

Well, lay down the law or lay it all on the line,

A E

Girl I don't care as long as you lay your body next to mine,

B A

And if you?re afraid of falling, darlin' don't be

Come on and lay it on me,

A E-A

I say lay it on me,

E A-E

Come on lay it on me
