Now I Lay Me Down To Weep Chords

(ver. 1)
Skeeter Davis
[Intro]
D    D
 
[Verse 1]
D            A7
Now I lay me down to weep
A7                 D
  Count my tears instead of sheep
       D7      G
Say my prayers turn out the light
A7                   D
  But I just lay and weep all night
 
[Verse 2]
D              A7
  Now I lay me down to cry
                   D
Pray the Lord that I might die
         D7      G
But each morning I awake
A7                 D
  And listen to my poor heart break
 
[Bridge]
   G                               D
If only I could sleep at night, (I dream)
 
I'd dream that you would hold me tight
    G
But I can't dream and I can't sleep
E7                  A7
  So, I just lay me down to weep
 
[Solo]
|  D  |  A7  |
 
[Verse 3]
A7                           D
  Sleep won't come to cryin' eyes
                  D7
And my poor heart just can't realize
     G
That now you're in another's keep
A7                     D
  So, I'll just lay me down to weep
 
[Outro]
                    A7
Sleep won't come to cryin' eyes
A7                   D
  And my heart can't realize
D7               G
  That you're in another's keep
      A7            D
  So, I just lay me down to weep
A7                    D    D
I just lay me down to weep
