               What will you do when you get lonely
            C#m                 C           D          E    E7
               With nobody waiting by your side
            F#m                B                  E                         A
               You've been running and hiding much too long
            F#m                  B                          E
               You know it's just your foolish pride

                                    A  Dm Bb     C                    Dm

                      Dm Thing  Dm Bb    C                        Dm
                                    Layla,    I'm begging, darling please
                      Dm Thing  Dm Bb C                           Dm                    Dm Thing
                                    Layla,       darling won't you ease my worried mind
                                                                                                                         Dm Bb C   A C

               Tried to give you consolation
               When your old man had let you down
               Like a fool, I fell in love with you
               You turned my whole world upside down

                                    Layla, you got me on my knees
                                    Layla, I'm begging, darling please
                                    Layla, darling won't you ease my worried mind
                                                           *Solo*   (verse & chorus)

               Make the best of the situation
               Before I finally go insane
               Please don't say we'll never find the way
               And tell me all my love's in vain

                                    Layla, you got me on my knees
                                    Layla, I'm begging, darling please
                                    Layla, darling won't you ease my worried mind

                                    Layla, you got me on my knees
                                    Layla, I'm begging, darling please
                                    Layla, darling won't you ease my worried mind...
                                                           *Solo*   (chorus (x4)
