My special lady, _ _ _ _ _ dancer of life, _ _ _ come and go [C] as you _ please, _ [G] for your moves are cheap. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Hey, I'd like to own you, _ _ but I won't even try.
_ _ _ When [C] free things are owned, _ _ _ they [Am] just [G] wither and die.
And _ _ I wouldn't kill [F] anything in you [C] _ _ _ for my image and [G] pride.
_ _ _ I will not [F] use love's altar for _ [C] _ _ murder [G] to hide.
So _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
I won't [G] try to own you, _ _ [C] _
shoot you down from [G] the sky. _ _
_ When [F] free things are owned, _ _
[C] they just [G] wither and die.
I _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ won't [G] try to have you _ [A] _ [C] _ _ only [G] for me.
_ _ _ Just know [C]
I [F] love you, _ [C] _ but my [G] love is free.
So _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ I'll be the river, _ _ _ yeah, you'll be the swan.
_ _ _ I'll [C] reflect your wings as _ you [G] cross the sun.
_ _ _ _ When you go away, _ _ _ that'll be too soon.
_ _ _ But I'll still [C] send you the song as _ you [G] circle the moon.
_ _ _ And I'll follow [F] my course _ [C] _ _ till I [G] merge in the sea.
_ _ _ Just remember [F] what I told you, _ _ [C] _ you were a special [G] lady to me.
But _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ I didn't [G] try to own you, _ _ [C] _
shoot you [G] down from the sky. _ _
When free [F] things are owned, _ [Am] _
[C] they just [G] wither and die. _ _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ I [G] didn't try to have you [C] _ _ _ [G] only for me.
_ _ _ Just know [F] I love you, _ [C] _ but my [G] love is free. _ _ _ _ _ _ _

[N] _ _ _ Thanks very much for listening.
