Chorus:
D          A   C
Lay lady lay
       Em           D    A   C Em
Lay across my big brass bed - x2

A         Bm            D
Whatever colors you have in your mind
I show them to you and you see them shine

Chorus:
Lay lady lay
Lay across my big brass bed
Stay lady stay
Stay with your man a while
Until the break of day
Let me see you make him smile

His clothes are dirty but his
His hands are clean
And you are the best thing
That he's ever seen

Chorus:
Stay lady stay
Stay with your man a while

F#m                                     D
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
            F#m                Em
When he's standing in front of you

Chorus:
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
Lay lady lay
Stay
Stay
