[Verse 1]
Lights out, paper town
Summer queens with daisy crows
Merry going round-and-round
You're the darling of the town
I'll show you the world tonight
I'll show you the world tonight
Scraped knees, birds and bees
Duke and duchess of a dream
Rainy day philosophy
A hurricane is just a breeze
I'll show you the world tonight
As long as you say you're mine

[Chorus]
Take my heart and put it in your pocket
Wear it like a locket and hide the key
At sundown when we're only dry bones
Sleeping under tombstones, lay by me

[Verse 2]
Back seat jubilee
Factories without machines
Digging in like winter trees
Stay this way and never leave
I'll show you the world tonight
I'll show you the world tonight

[Chorus]
Take my heart and put it in your pocket
Wear it like a locket and hide the key
At sundown when we're only dry bones
Sleeping under tombstones, lay by me

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Chorus]
Take my heart and put it in your pocket
Wear it like a locket and hide the key
At sundown when we're only dry bones
Sleeping under tombstones, lay by me
Take my heart and put it in your pocket
Wear it like a locket and hide the key
At sundown when we're only dry bones
Sleeping under tombstones, lay by me

[Outro]
Lay by me, lay by me
You're the only one and you always will be
Lay by me, lay by me
You're the only one and you always will be
