 LAY LADY LAY by Bob Dylan                    
 
 G  Bm  F  Am  G  Bm  F  Am  
 G          Bm   F             Am            G  Bm  F  Am  
 Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed
 G          Bm   F             Am            G  Bm  F  Am  
 Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed
 D        Em               G
 Whatever colours you have in your mind 
 D              Em     G
 I’ll show them to you and you’ll see them shine
 G          Bm   F             Am            G  Bm  F  Am
 Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed
 
 Stay, lady, stay, stay with your man awhile
 Until the break of day, let me see you make him smile
 His clothes are dirty but his hands are clean
 And you’re the best thing that he’s ever seen
 Stay, lady, stay, stay with your man awhile
 
 Bm                          D        G
 Why wait any longer for the world to begin
 Bm                             Am G
 You can have your cake and eat it too
 Bm                          D       G
 Why wait any longer for the one you love
               Bm               Am
 When he’s standing in front of you
 
 Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed
 Stay, lady, stay, stay while the night is still ahead
 I long to see you in the morning light
 I long to reach for you in the night
 Stay, lady, stay, stay while the night is still ahead
 
 G  Bm  F  Am  Bm  C  G

 I think this song originally is played in the key of A, so one have to transpose
 It up one whole step. Note also that it is played with chords moving down the 
 Frets in the Lay lady lay-part:
 
 A in 5th fret
 C#m in 4th fret
 G in 3rd
 Bm in 2nd.
 
 One should also note the use of Asus4 in the B-part.
