Stays the same pretty much the whole song. Just follow this rough sketch.
ALay, lady, Elay, Glay across Dmy big braAss EbedG  D  
Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed
EWhatever cDolors you have Ain your mind
I'll show them to you and you'll see them shine
ALay, lady, Elay, Glay across Dmy big braAss EbedG  D  
Stay, lady, stay, stay with your man awhile
Until the break of day, let me see you make him smile
EHis clothes Dare dirty but Ahis hands are clean
And you're the best thing that he's ever seen
Stay, lady, stay, stay with your man awhile
Why wait any longer for the world to begin
You can have your cake and eat it too
Why wait any longer for the one you love
When he's standing in front of you
Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed
Stay, lady, stay, stay while the night is still ahead
I long to see you in the morning light
I long to reach for you in the night
Stay, lady, stay, stay while the night is still ahead
