Maybe you don't know me anymore than I know you

And I wouldn't blame you if you walked away

I've been watching you all evening with those teardrops in your eyes

And it touches me much more than I can say

You Know I'd hate to think that someone

Could have hurt someone like you

And if I was him

I'd be right by your side

Lay your troubles on my shoulder, put your worries in my pocket

Rest your love on me awhile

Lay your troubles on my shoulder, put your worries in my pocket

Rest your love on me awhile

Saw you in the corner from the moment I walked in,

Saw your lonely face across the room,

No I won't forget it and the way it could've been

Why'd you have to leave so soon

You know I'd hate to think that someone

Could have loved you more than me

And at times like this

I'd be right by your side

Repeat Chorus:

(additional verses from the original version that conway did not record)

How long must I wait for that last train to be here

And the last chance to come

Just to think that I was born too soon

How long honey, when the lovin' don't come

I was there when you left

Just didn't know how to begin

Repeat Chorus:

Instrumental Solo using chorus chords

Repeat Chorus:

Lay your troubles on my shoulder, put your worries in my pocket

Rest your love on me awhile
