Capo 2

[D]Lay d[C]own your 
[G]weary [C]tune 
lay [G]down
Lay down the 
[Em]song you [D]strum
And r[C]est yours[G]elf 
[D]neath the [G]strength 
of [C]strings
No voice can [G]hop[D]e 
to [G]hum[D]

[D]Struc[C]k by 
the [G]sounds[C] 
before th[G]e sun
I knew the [Em]night 
had [D]gone
The m[C]orning br[G]eeze 
[D]like a [G]bugle [C]blew
Against the [G]dru[D]ms 
of [G]dawn[D]

[D]Lay d[C]own your 
[G]weary [C]tune 
lay [G]down
Lay down the 
[Em]song you [D]strum
And r[C]est yours[G]elf 
[D]neath the 
[G]strength of [C]strings
No voice can [G]hop[D]e 
to [G]hum[D]

[D]The o[C]cean 
[G]wild like an 
[C]organ [G]played
The seaweed's 
[Em]wove it's  [D]strands
The c[C]rashin' [G]waves 
[D]like [G]cymbals [C]clashed
Against the [G]roc[D]ks 
and [G]sand[D]s

[D]Lay d[C]own your 
[G]weary [C]tune 
lay [G]down
Lay down the 
[Em]song you [D]strum
And r[C]est yours[G]elf 
[D]neath the 
[G]strength of [C]strings
No voice can [G]hop[D]e 
to [G]hum[D]

[D]I [C]stood [G]unwound 
[C]beneath the [G]skies
And clouds 
un[Em]bound by [D]laws
The c[C]ryin' [G]rain 
[D]like a [G]trumpet [C]sang
And asked for 
[G]no [D]appl[G]ause[D]

[D]Lay d[C]own your 
[G]weary [C]tune 
lay [G]down
Lay down the 
[Em]song you [D]strum
And r[C]est yours[G]elf 
[D]neath the 
[G]strength of [C]strings
No voice can [G]hop[D]e 
to [G]hum[D]

[D]The l[C]ast of le[G]aves 
f[C]ell from t[G]he trees
And clung to a 
[Em]new love's [D]breast
The [C]branches [G]bare 
[D]like a [G]banjo [C]played
To the winds that 
[G]lis[D]tened [G]best[D]

[D]I gaz[C]ed down i[G]n the 
[C]river's [G]mirror
And watched it's  
[Em]winding [D]strum
The w[C]ater [G]smooth 
[D]ran [G]like a [C]hymn
And like a ha[G]rp 
[D]did [G]hum[D]

[D]Lay d[C]own your 
[G]weary [C]tune 
lay [G]down
Lay down the 
[Em]song you [D]strum
And r[C]est yours[G]elf 
[D]neath the 
[G]strength of [C]strings
No voice can 
[G]hop[D]e to [G]hum[D]
