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


Cmaj
Yes I do, I believe
That one day I will be where I was,
                             Fadd9
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.
     Cmaj
Your touch, your skin, where do I begin?
No words can explain
                      Fadd9
The way I’m missing you.
Tonight this emptiness,
This hole that I’m inside,
These tears, they tell their own story.

 Dm               F            Am
   Told me not to cry when you were gone,
 G         Dm            F
   But the feeling’s overwhelming,
               C/G  G9sus4
   It’s much too strong.

Chorus:
         C              Am
     Can I lay by your side,
             Dm7  F    Fsus2 F
     Next to you, you?
         C                   Am
     And make sure you’re alright.
                       Dm7
     I’ll take care of you,
           F
     And I don’t want to be here
        G9sus4            C
     If I can’t be with you tonight.

    Cmaj
I’m reaching out to you,
              Fadd9
Can you hear my call? Ooh.
     Cmaj
This hurt that I’ve been through,
I’m missing you,
                    Fadd9        G9sus4
I’m missing you like crazy, uuh.

Chorus:
         C        Em/B   Am
     Can I lay by your side,
             Dm7     F
     Next to you, to you?
         C                Em/B   Am
     And make sure you’re alright.
                       Dm7
     I’ll take care of you,
           F
     And I don’t want to be here
        G9sus4             Dm
     If I can’t be with you tonight.

Instrumental: Dm | Dm/F | Bbmaj | G7sus2

Dm     Dm/F   Bbmaj  G7sus2
Lay me down tonight,
Dm     Dm/F    Bbmaj G7sus2
Lay me by your side.
Dm     Dm/F   Bbmaj  G7sus2
Lay me down tonight,
Dm     Dm7/F   G9sus4
Lay me by your side.
    C              Am
Can I lay by your side,
        Dm7  Fadd9 G9sus4 C
Next to you, you?
