LAY BACK LAY BACK GO TO SLEEP MY MAN

G C

WIPE THE BLOOD FROM YOUR FACE AND YOUR HANDS

G C

FORGIVE YOURSELF IF YOU THINK YOU CAN

G D C

GO TO SLEEP GO TO SLEEP MY MAN

G C

21 DAYS LOST AT SEA I TOSSED

G C

FOR TWENTY TWO YEARS NON STOP I FOUGHT

G C

THROUGH THE DESERT PISS DRUNK AND CONFUSED I WALKED

G D C

I SPIT A TOOTH IN THE PALM OF MY HAND

LAY BACK LAY BACK GO TO SLEEP MY MAN

WIPE THE BLOOD FROM YOUR FACE AND YOUR HANDS

FORGIVE YOURSELF IF YOU THINK YOU CAN

GO TO SLEEP GO TO SLEEP MY MAN

WELL THE WIND AND THE TREES ARE GANG’IN UP ON ME

THEY SING MY FUNERAL SONG IN HARMONY

I KEEP ASKING FOR HELP FROM MY COMPANY BUT

THEY KEEP SINGIN AND SINGIN TO ME (LA LA LA LA LA )

AND SINGING AND SINGING TO ME …..

I WISH THINGS WE DIFFERENT TRUE INDEED

BUT EVERYTHING IS SO SHALLOW, AS EVERYTHING ABOUT ME

I WISH I COULD JUST TAKE MY MONEY AND LEAVE

I HOPE THE PEOPLE ON THE GROUND UNDERSTAND

I HOPE THE PEOPLE OUT THERE WILL UNDERSTAND

LAY BACK LAY BACK GO TO SLEEP MY MAN

WIPE THE BLOOD FROM YOUR FACE AND YOUR HANDS

FORGIVE YOURSELF IF YOU THINK YOU CAN

GO TO SLEEP GO TO SLEEP MY MAN
