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

Whatever colors you have in your mind

I'll show them to you and you'll see them shine

Until the break of day, let me see you make him smile
D               Em            G
His clothes are dirty but his hands are clean

And you're the best thing that he's ever seen

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
          Bm                   Am
When he's standing in front of you
 
G          Bm   F             Am        G  Bm  F  Am
Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed
G           Bm    F              Am              G  Bm  F  Am
Stay, lady, stay, stay while the night is still ahead
D         Em             G
I long to see you in the morning light

I long to reach for you in the night
