Max Stalling - Lay My Burdens Down Chords

Lay My Burdens Down
By Max Stalling




          D   A              D 
I'm going down on the Nueces River
              Bm                          A
Gonna call my brother, ask him to meet me there
       D       G               D  
On the surface will be two men fishing
       D          A                       D
Down below we are brothers with a love to share


Chorus:
          D  A           D
I'm gonna lay my burdens down now
              Bm                   A
Gonna ask the Lord to watch them a while
          D    G                D
I'm gonna walk where the sun is shining
        D         A              D
I'll be home when I have found a smile


There is a salt cedar tree that I know of
It can take a breeze and make a melody
I'm gonna climb up in those branches
And ask if it would whisper its secrets to me

Chorus

There'll come a time when the world is level
There was a time when the mountains grew
Then there is all that is here in the middle
And how it's spent is up to me and up to you

Chorus
