What'll you do when you get lonely
C♯m7         C7      D7      E7
And nobody's waiting by your side?
F♯m         B           E               A
You've been running and hiding much too long
F♯m           B                 E     A (reste)
You know it's just your foolish pride
 
  (A) (riff)
  Layla,     you've got me on my knees
  Layla, I'm begging darling please     w/ 3-4-5~6             
  Layla, darling won't you ease
  My worried mind                   
 
I tried to give you consolation
When your old man had let you down
Like a fool, I fell in love with you
Turned my whole world upside down
 
  Refrain
 
Let's make the best of the situation
Before I finally go insane
Please don't say, I'll never find a way
And tell me all my love's in vain

  Refrain  x 2  w/ 3-4
