Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed

[Verse 1]
E       F#m             A             Asus4  A  Asus4  A
Whatever colors you have in your mind
E             F#m               A               Asus4  A  Asus4  A
I'll show them to you and you'll see them shine

Stay, lady, stay, stay with your man awhile
A                 C#m  G             Bm          A  C#m  G  Bm
Until the break of day, let me see you make him smile

[Verse 2]
E              F#m           A                Asus4  A  Asus4  A
His clothes are dirty but his hands are clean
E             F#m                  A          Asus4  A  Asus4  A
And you're the best thing that he's ever seen

C#m                        E    F#m   A
Why wait any longer for the world to begin
C#m                              A
You can have your cake and eat it too
C#m                        E   F#m   A
Why wait any longer for the one you love
         C#m                        Bm
When he's standing right in front of you

[Chorus]
A         C#m  G             Bm        A  C#m  G  Bm
Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed

Stay, lady, stay, stay while the night is still ahead
A         C#m    G              Bm               A  C#m  G  Bm
Stay, lady, stay, stay while the night is still ahead
A         C#m  G             Bm        A  C#m  G  Bm
Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed
