(início)

G
When the wild-eyed dogs of day to day
G
Come snapping at your heels
G           C
And there's so much coming at you
C
That you don't know how to feel
G
When they've taken all your money
G
And then come back for your clothes
C
When your hands are full of thorns
C
But you can't quit groping for the rose

Chorus 1

          Am     Em
In the southland of the heart
       Dm7
Where night blooms perfume the breeze
C         G
Lie down
                    C  Csus C
Take your rest with me

Verse 2

G
When thoughts you've tried to leave behind
G
Keep sniping from the dark
C
When the fire burns inside you but
                       Am
You jump from every spark
G
When your heart's beset by memories
G
You wish you'd never made
C                     F
When the sun comes up an enemy
    C
And nothing gives you shade

Chorus 2

       Am        Em
In the southland of the heart
          Dm7
Where the saints go lazily
C         G
Lie down
G                    C  Csus C
Take your rest with me
(Quick strum F, Dm, C)
C         G
Lie down
G                    C  Csus C
Take your rest with me

Verse 1

G
When the preacher lays his insight down
G
And claims to lead the blind
C                         F
When those you trust just get you hooked
     C
And trifle with your mind
         G
When the nightmare's creeping closer
    G
And your wheels are in the mud
C                 F
When everything's ambiguous
C
Except the taste of blood

Chorus 3

       Am        Em
In the southland of the heart
           Dm7
There's no question of degree
C         G
Lie down
G                   C  Csus C
Take your rest with me
       Am        Em
In the southland of the heart
    Dm7
Everyone was always free
C
Lie down
G                   C
Take your rest with me
