INTRO: G  Bm  C  D C D C 
 
VERSE 1: 
 
         G                              Bm 
It's her first night on the town, since she was just 18 
  C                      D 
A lady down on love, and out of hope and dreams 
    G                         Bm 
The ties that once bound her, now are broke away away 
    C                        D               G 
And she is like a baby, just learning how to play 
 
VERSE 2: 
 
    G                              Bm  
She never thought that love, could ever end so soon 
    C                              D 
Her mind drifts back in time, to a mid-summer moon 
        G                         Bm   
When he ask her to marry, and she gladly said o.k. 
      C                          D             G      
And a woman came to be, from the girl of yesterday 
 
    G       Bm    C       G 
Now she's a lady, down on love 
 G           Bm         C              G 
She needs somebody, to gently pick her up 
 Em             Bm               C         G 
She's got her freedom, but she'd rather be bound 
     C                       D                 G 
To a man who would love her, and never let her down 
 
BRIDGE: 
 
  A                           C#m 
Well I know the lady, that's down on her love 
      D                       E 
Cause I used to hold her, and have that special touch 
    A                  C#m 
But work took me away, from home late at nights 
    D                    E 
And I wasn't there, when she turned out the lights 
     A                          C#m 
Then both of us got lonely, and I gave into lust 
    D                              E                A 
And she just couldn't live, with a man she couldn't trust 
 
    A       C#m   D       A 
Now she's a lady, down on love 
 A            C#m      D               A 
She needs somebody, to gently pick her up 
 F#m           C#m               D         A 
She's got her freedom, but she'd rather be bound 
     D                       E                 A 
To a man who would love her, and never let her down 
    A       C#m   D       A      A   C#m  D   A 
Now she's a lady, Down on love
