Verse: 
D                    
I will write you letters that  
  G                 D 
explain the way I'm thinking now 

I will return to you 
     G            D

     G             D

I will recoil myself 
  G                D 
Into the black and darkest night 

Chorus; 
A          D 
And lay me down 
A               D 
In the hallowed ground 
A                     D            A   A* A (pause 
Where my (fore)father waits I will stay

down by your side i will stay 
          D     
so lay me down
