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

C#maj
Yes I do, I believe
That one day I will be where I was,
                             F#add9
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.
     C#maj
Your touch, your skin, where do I begin?
No words can explain
                      F#add9
The way I’m missing you.
Tonight this emptiness,
This hole that I’m inside,
These tears, they tell their own story.

 Ebm              F#           Bbm
   Told me not to cry when you were gone,
 G#        Ebm           F#
   But the feeling’s overwhelming,
               C#/G# G#9sus4
   It’s much too strong.

Chorus:
         C#             Bbm
     Can I lay by your side,
             Ebm7 F#   F#sus2 F#
     Next to you, you?
         C#                  Bbm
     And make sure you’re alright.
                       Ebm7
     I’ll take care of you,
           F#
     And I don’t want to be here
        G#9sus4           C#
     If I can’t be with you tonight.

    C#maj
I’m reaching out to you,
              F#add9
Can you hear my call? Ooh.
     C#maj
This hurt that I’ve been through,
I’m missing you,
                    F#add9       G#9sus4
I’m missing you like crazy, uuh.

Chorus:
         C#       Fm/C   Bbm
     Can I lay by your side,
             Ebm7    F#
     Next to you, to you?
         C#               Fm/C   Bbm
     And make sure you’re alright.
                       Ebm7
     I’ll take care of you,
           F#
     And I don’t want to be here
        G#9sus4            Ebm
     If I can’t be with you tonight.

Instrumental: Ebm | Ebm/F# | Bmaj | G#7sus2

Ebm    Ebm/F# Bmaj   G#7sus2
Lay me down tonight,
Ebm    Ebm/F#  Bmaj  G#7sus2
Lay me by your side.
Ebm    Ebm/F# Bmaj   G#7sus2
Lay me down tonight,
Ebm    Ebm7/F# G#9sus4
Lay me by your side.
    C#             Bbm
Can I lay by your side,
        Ebm7 F#add9 G#9sus4 C#
Next to you, you?
