F Am
It's her first night on the town since she was just 18
A# C7
D lady down on love and out of hope and dreams
F Am
The ties that once bound her now are broken
A# C7 F
And she is like a baby just learning how to play
Am
She never thought that love could ever end so soon
A# C7
Her mind drifts back in time to a mid-summer moon
F Am
When he ask her to marry and she gladly said o k
A# C7 F
And a woman came to be from the girl of yesterday
Am A# F
Now she's a lady down on love
Am A# F
She needs somebody to gently pick her up
Dm Am A# F
She's got her freedom but she'd rather be bound
A# C7 F
To a man who would love her and never let her down
Am
Well I know the lady that's down on her love
A# C7
Cause I used to hold her and have that special touch
F Am
But work took me away from home late at nights
A# C7
And I wasn't there when she turned out the lights
F Am
Then both of us got lonely and I gave into lust
A# C7 F
And she just couldn't live with a man she couldn't trust
