[Strophe]
A 
There is nothing that is wrong  
                                 D 
In wanting you to stay here with me. 
   A 
I know you've got somewhere to go, 
  
But won't you make yourself at home and 
D                            E 
stay with me? And don't you ever leave.
[Refrain]
A                     D 
Lay down, Sally, and rest you 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.
[Strophe]
     A 
The sun ain't nearly on the rise 
                                      D 
And we still got the moon and stars above. 
A 
Underneath the velvet skies, 
                                     D 
Love is all that matters. Won't you stay with me? 
               E 
And don't you ever leave.
[Refrain]
A                     D 
Lay down, Sally, and rest you 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.

[Strophe]
   A 
I long to see the morning light 
                            D 
Coloring your face so dreamily. 
    A 
So don't you go and say goodbye, 
                                   D 
You can lay your worries down and stay with me. 
               E 
And don't you ever leave.
[Refrain]
A                     D 
Lay down, Sally, and rest you 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.

Lay down, Sally, and rest you 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.
