Chords with lyrics
written by Randy Owen
C majorC E minorEm
It's her first night on the town since she was just 18
FF G7G7
A augmentedA lady down on love and out of hope and dreams
C majorC E minorEm
The ties that once bound her now are broken
FF G7G7 C majorC
And she is like a baby just learning how to play
E minorEm
She never thought that love could ever end so soon
FF G7G7
Her mind drifts back in time to a mid-summer moon
C majorC E minorEm
When he ask her to marry and she gladly said o k
FF G7G7 C majorC
And a woman came to be from the girl of yesterday
E minorEm FF C majorC
Now she's a lady down on love
E minorEm FF C majorC
She needs somebody to gently pick her up
A minorAm E minorEm FF C majorC
She's got her freedom but she'd rather be bound
FF G7G7 C majorC
To a man who would love her and never let her down
E minorEm
Well I know the lady that's down on her love
FF G7G7
Cause I used to hold her and have that special touch
C majorC E minorEm
But work took me away from home late at nights
FF G7G7
And I wasn't there when she turned out the lights
C majorC E minorEm
Then both of us got lonely and I gave into lust
FF G7G7 C majorC
And she just couldn't live with a man she couldn't trust
