[Verse 1]
C
 Maybe you don't know me anymore than I know you
      C                                 G
And I wouldn't blame you if you walked away
       Dm               G                Dm                G
I been watchin' you all evenin' with the teardrops in your eyes
       Dm              G                C
And it touches me much more than I can say
             C
You know I'd hate to think that someone
           Cmaj7
Could have hurt someone like you
       C7                              F
And if I was him, I'd be right by your side
 
[Chorus]
F          G              C
  Lay your troubles on my shoulders
         Em            F
Put your worries in my pocket
          G           C  C7
Rest your love on me awhile
F          G              C
  Lay your troubles on my shoulder
         Em            F
Put your worries in my pocket
          G           C
Rest your love on me awhile

[Verse 2]
C
  Saw you in the corner on the moment I walked in
C                               G
Saw your lonely face across the room
Dm             G              Dm                G
No, I won't forget it and the way it might have been
Dm                     G        C
   Why did you have to leave so soon
             C
You know I'd hate to think that someone
           Cmaj7
Could have loved you more than me
       C7                                   F
And at times like this I'd be right by your side
 
[Chorus]
F          G              C
  Lay your troubles on my shoulders
         Em            F
Put your worries in my pocket
          G           C  C7
Rest your love on me awhile
F          G              C
  Lay your troubles on my shoulder
         Em            F
Put your worries in my pocket
          G           C
Rest your love on me awhile
 
[Bridge]
G
How long must I wait for the last train to be here
        F
And the last chance to know
C                  G              C
 Get to think that I was born too soon
G
How long honey, when the lovin' don't come
      F
I was there when you left me
C                  G        C C7
  Just didn't know how to begin
 
 
[Chorus]
F          G              C
  Lay your troubles on my shoulders
         Em            F
Put your worries in my pocket
          G           C  C7
Rest your love on me awhile
F          G              C
  Lay your troubles on my shoulder
         Em            F
Put your worries in my pocket
          G           C
Rest your love on me awhile
