Key: G

Intro:

G/B  G/Bb  G/A  G


Verse:
G                         C
She longed to be a lady
     C            G        C
when she was just a child
    C                G              Em      A7
But where the grass was greener and better
A7           D
She done her going wild

Interlude:
G   G/Bb


Verse:
G/A        G                                 C
Then she'd try to spread her tender wings
    C            G
and never left the ground
       C         D       G
So she turned to dreams
            Em   C
At sweet sixteen
    D              G
And woke up coming down


Chorus:
        C                         G
But she tries in her way climbing high
        A7                 D       C
And she dies each time she fails
              C      G
So give her a home
              Em        C
Or leave her alone (the lady)
    D      G
The lady's not for sale.


Interlude:
G   G/Bb  G/A


Verse:
    G                               C
She ain't ashamed to show her soul
       C       G           C
She'll sell it for a song
    C          G                Em    A7
But free don't mean she's easy
   A7         D
Or right for going wrong


Verse:
      G
Oh so let her be the Lady, Lord
    C        D      G   C
She wants so bad to be
            D    G
And let her win
       Em      C
The gentleman
D            G
She was born to please


Chorus:
          C                         G
Cause she tries in her way climbing high
        A7                 D       C
And she dies each time she fails
              C      G
So give her a home
              Em        C
Or leave her alone (the lady)
    D      G
The lady's not for sale.


Tag:
G      C          D     G
oh, So give her a home
              Em        C
Or leave her alone (the lady)
N.C.
You know, the lady is not for sale.
