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

Bmaj
Yes I do, I believe
That one day I will be where I was,
                             Eadd9
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.
     Bmaj
Your touch, your skin, where do I begin?
No words can explain
                      Eadd9
The way I’m missing you.
Tonight this emptiness,
This hole that I’m inside,
These tears, they tell their own story.

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

Chorus:
         B              G#m
     Can I lay by your side,
             C#m7 E    Esus2 E
     Next to you, you?
         B                   G#m
     And make sure you’re alright.
                       C#m7
     I’ll take care of you,
           E
     And I don’t want to be here
        F#9sus4           B
     If I can’t be with you tonight.

    Bmaj
I’m reaching out to you,
              Eadd9
Can you hear my call? Ooh.
     Bmaj
This hurt that I’ve been through,
I’m missing you,
                    Eadd9        F#9sus4
I’m missing you like crazy, uuh.

Chorus:
         B        Ebm/Bb G#m
     Can I lay by your side,
             C#m7    E
     Next to you, to you?
         B                Ebm/Bb G#m
     And make sure you’re alright.
                       C#m7
     I’ll take care of you,
           E
     And I don’t want to be here
        F#9sus4            C#m
     If I can’t be with you tonight.

Instrumental: C#m | C#m/E | Amaj | F#7sus2

C#m    C#m/E  Amaj   F#7sus2
Lay me down tonight,
C#m    C#m/E   Amaj  F#7sus2
Lay me by your side.
C#m    C#m/E  Amaj   F#7sus2
Lay me down tonight,
C#m    C#m7/E  F#9sus4
Lay me by your side.
    B              G#m
Can I lay by your side,
        C#m7 Eadd9 F#9sus4 B
Next to you, you?
