My first time doing this, so sorry for any mess—ups. This song is very simple. It
sounds better if you use a palm mute between sturms. You may want to listen to the
song for a better chance at picking up the sturm pattern.

Verse 1
C F
I come over early in the morning
C F
I'm like a heat wave, without warning
C F
And when I touch you my heart begins to flutter
C F G(Bar chord)
Cos you're smooth and creamy like peanut butter
Chorus
C F
Girl I wanna lay you down
C F
(I said) girl I wanna lay you down
Verse 2
C F
I'm gonna flood you, like a love river
C F
Awe baby the post man, is about to deliver
C F
Cook you up some dinner, a little pasta
C F
Listen to some music, a little rasta
(chorus)
Verse 3
C F
Turn off the lights, bring in the candles
C F
wrap your arms around my love handles...
C F
They say that passion may not endure
C F
But this feeling that I have for you is burning up my world
(this is the same as the chorus)
Aweee, I said girl I wanna lay you down
(I said) girl I wanna lay you down
Girl I wanna lay you down
Girl I wanna lay you down
Girl I wanna lay you down
Girl I wanna lay you down
Girl I wanna lay you down
