Do what you do what you say what you feel..
Sometimes Bblife can be a Fburden
Tryna Bbstay one step Fahead 
I feel the Bbworld upon my Fshoulder each time
I'm sCtanding out on the Gedge
And my Bbhopes have all Fdeserted me
Like they wBbashed away in the Fsand
And it's Bbhurting my pride TryFna survive 
But i Cknow i stand a cGhance
When you lay your BbhandsF  
BbOh yeaFh
'Coz it's the Dmonly thing I hCave that still makes seGnse 
(Oh baby, when I'm Bbcalling out) 
Give me Flove and affection,
Keep tellinBbg me, show me the Fway.
(Oh, if you see me fallBbing down)
Lift Fme up from the shadows
Will you Ctake me away to a betGter place?
(And when I'm in my Bbdarkest hour)
You're bFy my side, to turn the Bbtide,
Until the suffering Ffades.
When life is Dmgetting me down,
Cgetting me down, i'm close to Bbdefeat,
                        ( Bb- F)X2
Come and lay ur hands on me.
(same chords)
Feel this road is getting longer now 
And i'm too far away from home 
Still I gotta keep on moving on 
But I can't do it on my own 
Baby keep my head above water 
Help me swim for my life
'Coz the game is getting harder 
The strain is gettin stronger 
And I can only face the fight 
When you lay your hands 
Oh yeah
'Coz it's the only thing I have that still makes sense
(Oh baby, when I'm calling out) 
Give me love and affection,
Keep telling me, show me the way.
(Oh, if you see me falling down)
Lift me up from the shadows
Will you take me away to a better place?
(And when I'm in my darkest hour)
You're by my side, to turn the tide,
Until the suffering fades.
When life is getting me down,
getting me down, i'm close to defeat,
Come and lay ur hands on me..
'Til I'm hBbealed again,
DmRediscovered my strengths,
BbThose bitter blues are Cgone...
           Bb     F( Bb- F) x3   C- G  
Oh, gone...
(same chords)
(Oh baby, when I'm calling out) 
Give me love and affection,
Keep telling me, show me the way.
(Oh, if you see me falling down)
Lift me up from the shadows
Will you take me away to a better place?
(And when I'm in my darkest hour)
You're by my side, to turn the tide,
Until the suffering fades.
When life is getting me down,
getting me down, i'm close to defeat,
Come and lay ur hands on me.
Come and lay your hands on me.
