It´s my first tab. I hope you like it.
Capo: 1st fret!
Intro [C][F]
[C]           [F]                     [C]                 [F]
It seems like every story told about us isn't meant to be
[C]        [F]                [C]                    [F]
You fly on wings of gold all the way back home to me
    [C]               [Am]    [Em]      [G]
But what I'm thinking of just this time
              [C]      [Am]         [Em]        [F]
Why don't you lay your head down in my arms, in my arms
[C]      [Am]         [Em]        [F]
Lay your head down in my arms, in my arms
[C]         [F]         [C]               [F]
You know my love this is no dream of mine
[C]             [F]                      [C]                       [F]
But the way you ride those waves makes me want to follow you blind
    [C]               [Am]    [Em]      [G]
And what I'm thinking of just this time
              [C]      [Am]         [Em]        [F]
Why don't you lay your head down in my arms, in my arms.
[C]      [Am]         [Em]       [F]
Lay your head down in my arms.
[C]      [Am]         [Em]       [F]
Lay your head down in my arms, in my arms
[C]      [Am]         [Em]       [F]
Lay your head down, in my arms.
