G Bm
It's her first night on the town since she was just 18
C D7
E lady down on love and out of hope and dreams
G Bm
The ties that once bound her now are broken
C D7 G
And she is like a baby just learning how to play
Bm
She never thought that love could ever end so soon
C D7
Her mind drifts back in time to a mid-summer moon
G Bm
When he ask her to marry and she gladly said o k
C D7 G
And a woman came to be from the girl of yesterday
Bm C G
Now she's a lady down on love
Bm C G
She needs somebody to gently pick her up
Em Bm C G
She's got her freedom but she'd rather be bound
C D7 G
To a man who would love her and never let her down
Bm
Well I know the lady that's down on her love
C D7
Cause I used to hold her and have that special touch
G Bm
But work took me away from home late at nights
C D7
And I wasn't there when she turned out the lights
G Bm
Then both of us got lonely and I gave into lust
C D7 G
And she just couldn't live with a man she couldn't trust
