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

Amaj
Yes I do, I believe
That one day I will be where I was,
                             Dadd9
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.
     Amaj
Your touch, your skin, where do I begin?
No words can explain
                      Dadd9
The way I’m missing you.
Tonight this emptiness,
This hole that I’m inside,
These tears, they tell their own story.

 Bm               D            F#m
   Told me not to cry when you were gone,
 E         Bm            D
   But the feeling’s overwhelming,
               A/E  E9sus4
   It’s much too strong.

Chorus:
         A              F#m
     Can I lay by your side,
             Bm7  D    Dsus2 D
     Next to you, you?
         A                   F#m
     And make sure you’re alright.
                       Bm7
     I’ll take care of you,
           D
     And I don’t want to be here
        E9sus4            A
     If I can’t be with you tonight.

    Amaj
I’m reaching out to you,
              Dadd9
Can you hear my call? Ooh.
     Amaj
This hurt that I’ve been through,
I’m missing you,
                    Dadd9        E9sus4
I’m missing you like crazy, uuh.

Chorus:
         A        C#m/G# F#m
     Can I lay by your side,
             Bm7     D
     Next to you, to you?
         A                C#m/G# F#m
     And make sure you’re alright.
                       Bm7
     I’ll take care of you,
           D
     And I don’t want to be here
        E9sus4             Bm
     If I can’t be with you tonight.

Bm     Bm/D   Gmaj   E7sus2
Lay me down tonight,
Bm     Bm/D    Gmaj  E7sus2
Lay me by your side.

Lay me down tonight,

Can I lay by your side,

Next to you, you?
