Title: Lay Down (Cousins) Band: The Strawbs Recording date 1972 - 73 ish This is an excellent electric folk/rock song recorded by the Strawbs over 25 years ago. I'm sure that the chords are far too simplistic but it sounds reasonable. There is as I remember an excellent lead break which unfortunately I can't reprodure. Any updates or improvements very welcome. By still waters I lay down with the lambs In pastures green I made peace with my soul And I cared not for the night While my guiding star shone bright By still waters I lay down I lay down. Lay down, I lay me down Lay down, I lay me down Lay down, I lay me down For my soul. At the roadside I took toll of my times In dirty streets I found peace for my soul May the merciful be right Are you ready for the night At the roadside I lay down I lay down. Lay down, I lay me down Lay down, I lay me down Lay down, I lay me down For my soul. In deep sorrow I took flight with the sun >From mountains high I gained strength for my soul I proved stronger than the test When my spirit came to rest In deep sorrow I lay down I lay down. Lay down, I lay me down Lay down, I lay me down Lay down, I lay me down For my soul.
