I saw you coming from the Gstart.
She made you think she was the Gone,
I always knew she'd break your Cheart.
So she was out with your boy, CDom.
On the floor in a Gslow grind.
You're asking me just what to Fdo, boy,
GI say you should lay it on the Cline.
Now, remember Jenny from back in Cschool?
She said she'd meet you at the Gpond, boy.
Your first love, her first Gfool. 
Somehow I knew she'd lead you Con, yeah.
It hurts my heart to see your Cpain,
Looking in from the Goutside.
And now you're doing it all Fagain, yeah,
WGake up boy and lay it on the Cline.

Chords in this song · guitar

You were wrong.

I saw you coming from the start.

She made you think she was the one,

I always knew she'd break your heart.

So she was out with your boy, Dom.

On the floor in a slow grind.

You're asking me just what to do, boy,

G C

I say you should lay it on the line.

Now, remember Jenny from back in school?

She said she'd meet you at the pond, boy.

Your first love, her first fool.

Somehow I knew she'd lead you on, yeah.

It hurts my heart to see your pain,

Looking in from the outside.

And now you're doing it all again, yeah,

G C

Wake up boy and lay it on the line.

Chorus:

F E

We've been friend for so long,

I'm hear for you whenever you call.

D G

But now it's time, for you to speak your mind.

Ooo baby, it's been so hard,

Holding back everything inside.

To be honest, I've been a little scared,

Of losing you, I can't lie.

Verse 6:

And now I gotta let you know,

I've been feeling you all this time.

And now I'm ready to take a chance.

G C

I'm going to lay it on the line.

Chorus:

F E

We've been friend for so long,

I'm hear for you whenever you call.

D G

But now it's time, for you to speak your mind.

Oh oh Baby, let me know,

If you've been feeling me all this time.

Are you ready to take a chance, boy?

G C

Common and lay it on the line.

Said "Are you ready for love?"

I'm going to lay it on the line, baby.

Are you ready for real, real love?

Common and lay it on the line.

Are you feeling me like I've been feeling you boy?

Common and lay it...

You've got to lay it on the line, baby.

Common and lay it...

Common and lay it on line.
