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

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

 Bbm              C#           Fm
   Told me not to cry when you were gone,
 Eb        Bbm           C#
   But the feeling’s overwhelming,
               G#/Eb Eb9sus4
   It’s much too strong.

Chorus:
         G#             Fm
     Can I lay by your side,
             Bbm7 C#   C#sus2 C#
     Next to you, you?
         G#                  Fm
     And make sure you’re alright.
                       Bbm7
     I’ll take care of you,
           C#
     And I don’t want to be here
        Eb9sus4           G#
     If I can’t be with you tonight.

    G#maj
I’m reaching out to you,
              C#add9
Can you hear my call? Ooh.
     G#maj
This hurt that I’ve been through,
I’m missing you,
                    C#add9       Eb9sus4
I’m missing you like crazy, uuh.

Chorus:
         G#       Cm/G   Fm
     Can I lay by your side,
             Bbm7    C#
     Next to you, to you?
         G#               Cm/G   Fm
     And make sure you’re alright.
                       Bbm7
     I’ll take care of you,
           C#
     And I don’t want to be here
        Eb9sus4            Bbm
     If I can’t be with you tonight.

Lay me down tonight,

Lay me down tonight,
Bbm    Bbm7/C# Eb9sus4

Next to you, you?
