written by Randy Owen C Em It's her first night on the town since she was just 18 F G7 A lady down on love and out of hope and dreams C Em The ties that once bound her now are broken F G7 C And she is like a baby just learning how to play Em She never thought that love could ever end so soon F G7 Her mind drifts back in time to a mid-summer moon C Em When he ask her to marry and she gladly said o k F G7 C And a woman came to be from the girl of yesterday
Em F C Now she's a lady down on love Em F C She needs somebody to gently pick her up Am Em F C She's got her freedom but she'd rather be bound F G7 C To a man who would love her and never let her down Em Well I know the lady that's down on her love F G7 Cause I used to hold her and have that special touch C Em But work took me away from home late at nights F G7 And I wasn't there when she turned out the lights C Em Then both of us got lonely and I gave into lust F G7 C And she just couldn't live with a man she couldn't trust
