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