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