C Em
It's her first night on the town since she was just 18
F G7
A lady down on love and out of hope and dreams
C Em
The ties that once bound her now are broken
F G7 C
And she is like a baby just learning how to play
Em
She never thought that love could ever end so soon
F G7
Her mind drifts back in time to a mid-summer moon
C Em
When he ask her to marry and she gladly said o k
F G7 C
And a woman came to be from the girl of yesterday
Em F C
Now she's a lady down on love
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 G7 C
To a man who would love her and never let her down
Em
Well I know the lady that's down on her love
F G7
Cause I used to hold her and have that special touch
C Em
But work took me away from home late at nights
F G7
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 G7 C
And she just couldn't live with a man she couldn't trust
