LOVE AIN'T FOR KEEPING- The Who

  G           D
Layin' on my back
                    A
In the newly mown grass
 G               D
Rain is coming down
                             A
But I know the clouds will pass
 D
You bring me tea
                      A
Say "the babe's a-sleepin'"
C          G
Lay down beside me
                  A     G  A
Love ain't for keeping

Black ash from the foundry
Hangs like a hood
But the air is perfumed
By the burning firewood
The seeds are bursting
The spring is seeping
Lay down beside me
Love ain't for keeping

  C         G    
Lay down beside me
                 A     G  A
Love ain't for keeping

Lay down beside me
Love ain't for keeping
Lay down my darling
Love ain't for keeping
