[Dm]
[Eb] [G]
[Cm] [F] [Bb] It's her first night on the town [Dm] since she was just 18
[Eb] A lady down on love [F] and out of hope and dreams
[Bb] The ties that once bound her [Dm] now are broke away
[Eb] And she's like a baby [F] just learning how to play
[Eb]
[Bb] She never thought that love [Dm] could ever end so soon
[Eb] Her mind drifts back in time [F] to a midsummer moon
[Bb] When he asked her to marry and [Dm] she gladly said okay
[Eb] And a woman came to be [F] from the girl of [Bb] yesterday
[Eb]
[Bb] Now [Dm] she's a lady [Eb] down on [Bb] love
[Bb] She needs [Dm] somebody to [Eb]
gently pick [Bb] her up
[Gm]
She's got [Dm] her freedom but [Eb] she'd rather [Bb] be bound
[Cm] To a man who would love her [F] and never [Bb] let her down
[G] [C] Well I know the lady [Em] that's down on her love
[F] Cause I used to hold her [G] and have that special touch
[C] But work took me away [Em] from home late at night
[F] And I wasn't there [G] when she turned out the lights
Then both of us got lonely [Bm] and I gave in to lust
And [F] she just couldn't live with a man she couldn't [C] trust
Now [Em] she's a lady [F]
down [C] on love
She needs [Em] somebody to [F]
gently pick [C] her up
[Am]
She's got [Em] her freedom but [F] she'd rather [C] be bound
[Dm] To a man who would love her [G] and never let [C] her down
Now [Bm] she's a lady
[C] down [C] on love
[Em] [F]
