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

B
Yes I do, I believe
That one day I will be where I was,
                             E
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.
     B
Your touch, your skin, where do I begin?
No words can explain
                      E
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#7
   It’s much too strong.

Chorus:
         B              G#m
     Can I lay by your side,
             C#m7 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#7               B
     If I can’t be with you tonight.

    B
I’m reaching out to you,
              E
Can you hear my call? Ooh.
     B
This hurt that I’ve been through,
I’m missing you,
                    E            F#7
I’m missing you like crazy, uuh.

Chorus:
         B        Ebm    G#m
     Can I lay by your side,
             C#m7    E
     Next to you, to you?
         B                Ebm    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#7                C#m
     If I can’t be with you tonight.

C#m           A      F#7
Lay me down tonight,
C#m            A     F#7
Lay me by your side.
C#m           A      F#7
Lay me down tonight,
C#m    C#m7    F#7
Lay me by your side.
    B              G#m
Can I lay by your side,

Next to you, you?
