Intro
Dm
(Riff some other time...Most chords best played as Bar chords)
Dm G F C Dm
Ah the days they flew by and the leaves fell from the trees
F C A# F Gm
And many times you came around and many times you slept with me
F C A# F Gm
And every time that we made love you wrote it down in your diary
D
Lady of ladies
Gm F Gm F Eb D
But I would always say to you don't ask about tomorrow
Gm F Gm F Eb D
Give what you have take what you need, your time is only now
Eb D
Don't try to tie me down to promises
Cm D
Live for today, today is all there is
Gm Eb D Gm
And freedom seems to be everything to me
Dm G F C Dm
I took you down to a party on the night of the fourth of May
F C A# F Gm
And a strange and growing restlessness had hung in the air all day
F C A# F Gm
The need to try and tear down and destroy all that we made
D
Lady of ladies
Gm F Gm F Eb D
You whispered in my ear and asked me if I fancied her
Gm F Gm F Eb D
you told me that he'd phoned you when I was in America
Eb D
daring each other just to say okay
Cm D
swap for tonight didn't I always say
Gm Cm D Gm
that freedom seems to be everything to me
Cm D Gm
And she came and she sat down beside me
Cm D Gm
and you found an excuse to go downstairs
Cm D Eb D
and she smiled and made the kind of conversation that you do
Cm D Gm
and later on she said my last train has gone
Cm D Gm
oh I wonder if you would take me home
Cm D
and I found you in the hallway
Gm D
and told you that was all that I would do
Eb D
just run her home and it’s through
Cm D
oh I thought that you knew
Gm A# F Eb
but I must confess, I laid my head on her breast
Gm F Eb
and it seemed so hard to pull it away
Gm A# F Eb
her hand touched my hand and her eyes were offering the rest
Gm F Eb
if it wasn't for you oh I would have stayed
Gm F Gm F Gm
but I came back home through the morning to find you lying awake
Gm F Gm D
and I knew all at once what you'd done and I heard myself say
Gm
(1 Down stroke per beat)
why did you have to sleep with him anyone else wouldn't have mattered half as much as him
Dm G F C Dm
I don’t want to touch you somehow you feel unclean
F C A# F Gm
I just wish that you were five hundred miles away from me
F C A# F Gm
Don't talk at all, don't start to cry just pick up your things
D
Lady of ladies
Gm F Gm F Eb D
And though I'd always told myself that when our time ended
Gm F Gm F Eb D
I'd walk away with no regrets and no attempts to stay
Eb D
Somehow it doesn't seem to be that way
Cm D
I find I'm needing every word you say
Gm Cm D Gm
This freedom seems to be everything to me
Cm D Gm Cm D Gm
And you went up to Cambridge and you stayed in your brother's room
Cm D Eb D
And you wrote me a letter and sent it the same afternoon
Cm D Gm Cm D Gm
You said I just want to hurt myself. Oh I need you so badly now
Cm D Gm D
And you told me without you there seems to be no horizon at all
Cm D Cm D
Just no crack in the wall, no place lower to fall
Gm F Gm Gm F Gm
"Hey don't leave me, don't leave me, the shapelessness of the dawn
Gm F Gm D
Floods above and beneath me, I just can't go on
Cm D Eb D
And I had to walk right into the trap, and I had to say please come back
Gm F Gm D
Though I felt all the while my resistance slipping away
Gm
(1 Down stroke per beat)
Why did I have to fall for you anyone else wouldn't have hurt me half as much as you
