VERSE 1
E
Scripture say that in the last days the light of rain comes
E
I try to see it now, I climb the ladder rung
A
We need that old dream, youngin's gotta prophecize
E
People need a glimpse of hope if only through the prophet's eyes
E
Heaven knows that people perish when their vision dies
E
Fear will kill you man and unbelief will paralyze
A
But we prepared to die that ain't but a journey home
B7
But while we still survive, lordy let your will be known
E
This man before us was a friend and a leader
E
A compassionate father and a sturdy believer
A
Seems the tender age of fifty just too early to leave us
B7
We ain't questionin' your will but God please show us your reasons
CHORUS
E
Lord lay me down
E
In the evening
A
Lowered in the ground
E
When I'm cold

VERSE 2- BIG JOE
E
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
E
I hope I find some when my time comes around
A
They laid my mama in the ground the morning I was born and now
E
You're singing that it's evening but the sun ain't gone down
E
And even now the shadow of this crown
E
Remind me how without the king I wouldn't be around
A
And something in the sound of this song as we lay me down sounds like
B7
Something, but that's so long ago now
E
And now I'll guard this bar, fight hard for the patrons
E
Your king is gone but I carry on the administration
A
Know this: if you need a hand look to these fists
B7
Forever and a day they stay clenched, long live the king!
CHORUS
E
Lord lay me down
E
In the evening
A
Lowered in the ground
E
When I'm cold
E
Lord lay me down
E
And when I'm leaving
B7 A
Carry on my very soul
E
Lord lay me down
E
In the evening
A
Lowered in the ground
E
When I'm cold
E
Lord lay me down
E
And when I'm leaving
B7 A
Carry on my very soul
