Vs.1 
         A                              C#m 
It's her first night on the town, since she was just 18. 
  D                      E      
A lady down on love, and out of hopes and dreams. 
    A                         C#m 
The ties that once bound her, now are broke away away. 
    D                       E               A 
And she's just like a baby, learning how to play. 
 
 
Vs.2 
She never thought that love, could ever end so soon. 
Her mind drifts back in time, to a mid-summer moon. 
When he ask her to marry, and she gladly said OK. 
And a woman came to be, from the girl of yesterday. 
 
    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.

Bridge: 
 C                           Em 
Well I know the lady, that's down on her love. 
      F                       G 
Cause I used to hold her, and have that special touch. 
    C                  Em 
But work took me away, from home late at night. 
    F                    G 
And I wasn't there, when she turned out the lights. 
     C                          Em 
Then both of us got lonely, and I gave into lust. 
    F                              G                C 
And she just couldn't live, with a man she couldn't trust. 
 
    C       Em    F       C 
Now she's a lady, down on love. 
 C            Em       F               C 
She needs somebody, to gently pick her up. 
 Am            Em                F         C 
She's got her freedom, but she'd rather be bound. 
     F                       G                 C 
To a man who would love her, and never let her down.
