There is nothing that is wrong in wanting you to stay here with me
   A                                                                       D     
I know you've got somewhere to go, but won't you make yourself at home and stay with me
              E
And don't you ever leave
 
A                     D
Lay down, Sally, and rest here in my arms.
E                                    A
Don't you think you want someone to talk to?
A                    D
Lay down, Sally, no need to leave so soon.
E                                        A
I've been trying all night long just to talk to you.

The sun ain't nearly on the rise and we still got the moon and stars above
A                                                               D
Underneath the velvet skies love is all that matters. Won't you stay with me?
               E
And don't you ever leave
 
A                     D
Lay down, Sally, and rest here in my arms.
E                                    A
Don't you think you want someone to talk to?

I've been trying all night long just to talk to you.

I long to see the morning light coloring your face so dreamily
    A                                                              D    
So don't you go and say goodbye, you can lay your worries down and stay with me
               E
And don't you ever leave.
 
A                     D
Lay down, Sally, and rest here in my arms.

Lay down, Sally, there's no need to leave so soon.
