Standard (EADGBE)

Verses

  Sing to me sweetly as I turn sour, Lay Me Down remembering

  That the wind and the rain played a part in that dreadful hour.

  And so as I pass I too feel the power, laying here under the trees

  Where three days before I danced in a summer shower.

Chorus

  And she said there look through the trees, the sun always shines

  Always ontime.

  There rest on your knees and in a prayer, follow me there.

Repeat chords for remaining verses....

This is a beautiful song from a group from my hometown of

  Raleigh, It is rumored to be about a young boy who

fell while riding his bike and landed in a deep ditch. A big rain came

and because he broke both of his legs, he could not get up from

the ditch and so the young boy drowned.
