Lyrics and Music by Samuel Smith, James Napier and Elvin Smith
feat. John Legend

F#
Yes I do, I believe
That one day I will be where I was,
                             B
Right there, right next to you.
And it’s hard the days just seem so dark,
The moon, and the stars
Are nothing without you.
     F#
Your touch, your skin, where do I begin?
No words can explain
                      B
The way I’m missing you.
Tonight this emptiness,
This hole that I’m inside,
These tears, they tell their own story.

 G#m              B            Ebm
   Told me not to cry when you were gone,
 C#        G#m           B
   But the feeling’s overwhelming,
               F#   C#7
   It’s much too strong.

Chorus:
         F#             Ebm
     Can I lay by your side,
             G#m7 B
     Next to you, you?
         F#                  Ebm
     And make sure you’re alright.
                       G#m7
     I’ll take care of you,
           B
     And I don’t want to be here
        C#7               F#
     If I can’t be with you tonight.

    F#
I’m reaching out to you,
              B
Can you hear my call? Ooh.
     F#
This hurt that I’ve been through,
I’m missing you,
                    B            C#7
I’m missing you like crazy, uuh.

Chorus:
         F#       Bbm    Ebm
     Can I lay by your side,
             G#m7    B
     Next to you, to you?
         F#               Bbm    Ebm
     And make sure you’re alright.
                       G#m7
     I’ll take care of you,
           B
     And I don’t want to be here
        C#7                G#m
     If I can’t be with you tonight.

Instrumental: G#m | G#m | E | C#7

G#m           E      C#7
Lay me down tonight,
G#m            E     C#7
Lay me by your side.
G#m           E      C#7
Lay me down tonight,
G#m    G#m7    C#7
Lay me by your side.
    F#             Ebm
Can I lay by your side,
        G#m7 B     C#7    F#
Next to you, you?
