Lay Down Your Weary Tune Tab

by Byrds




The Byrds           Lay Down You Weary Tune       written by Bob Dylan

                                                   
Lay down your weary tune lay down lay down the song you strum
                                                                 
And rest yourself neath the strength of strings no voice can hope to
hum
                              
Struck by the sounds before the sun
                   
I knew the night had come
                                 
The morning breeze like a  bugle blew
                   
Against the drums of dawn
                                                    
Lay down your weary tune lay down lay down the song you strum
                                                                 
And rest yourself neath the strength of strings no voice can hope to
hum
                           
The ocean wild like an organ played
                       
The seaweed's wove it's strands
                                
The crashin  waves like cymbals clashed
                    
Against the rocks and sands
                                                    
Lay down your weary tune lay down lay down the song you strum
                                                                 
And rest yourself neath the strength of strings no voice can hope to
hum
                               
The last of leaves fell from the trees
                        
And clung to a new love's breast
                            
The branches bare like a new banjo
                            
To the  winds that listen the best
                                                    
Lay down your weary tune lay down lay down the song you strum
                                                                 
And rest yourself neath the strength of strings no voice can hope to
hum

Foster & Lloyd    Part I Know By Heart by Radney Foster/Bill Lloyd


                                           
When I'm out of love everythings going so crazy
                                                  
It's your sweet love that brings me around you amaze me
                                
And when the days drag on and on
                                     
And I feel like all the good times have gone
                              
And there's no one left on my side
                            
And no place to go  nowhere to hide
                             
I might forget sometimes when my world falls apart
                                

You pick the pieces  up and that feeling starts
                                 
It's the part I know by heart
                
When I'm holding you
                            
Troubles are so far behind me
                
You know what to do
                             
You'r always there to remind me
                       
How to keep this love alive
                                      
While the world is like a roller coaster ride
                      
You're still hanging on
                                  
The head grows weak but the heart is strong
                             
I might forget sometimes when my world falls apart
                                

You pick the pieces  up and that feeling starts
                                 
It's the part I know by heart
                             
Sometimes I don't know what to feel girl
                                
You bring me back to what is real girl

SOLO

                             
I might forget sometimes when my world falls apart
                                

You pick the pieces  up and that feeling starts
                                 
It's the part I know by heart
