CAPO 3
[Intro]
G Bm C D C D C
[Verse 1]
It's her Gfirst night on the town, since Bmshe was just 18.
A Clady down on love, and Dout of hope and dreams.
The Gties that once bound her, Bmnow are broke away.
And Cshe's like a baby, just Dlearning how to Gplay. C D C
She Gnever thought that love, could Bmever end so soon.
Her Cmind drifts back in time, to a Dmid-summer moon.
When Ghe asked her to marry, and she Bmgladly said “OK”.
And a Cwoman came to be, from the Dgirl of yesterGday. C D C
[Chorus]
Now Gshe's a Bmlady, Cdown on Glove.
GShe needs someBmbody, to Cgently pick her Gup.
EmShe's got her Bmfreedom, but she'd Crather be Gbound,
To a Cman who would love her,D and never let her Gdown. E

[Verse 2]
Well AI know the lady, that's C#mdown on her love.
Cause DI used to hold her, and Ehave that special touch.
But Awork took me away, from C#mhome late at nights.
And DI wasn't there, when Eshe turned out the lights.
Then Aboth of us got lonely, and C#mI gave into lust.
And Dshe just couldn't live, with a Eman she couldn't AtrustD. A D
[Chorus]
Now Ashe's a C#mlady, Ddown on Alove.
AShe needs someC#mbody, to Dgently pick her Aup.
F#mShe's got her C#mfreedom, but she'd Drather be Abound,
To a Dman who would love her, and Enever let her Adown.D A D
[Outro]
Now Ashe's a C#mlady, DDown on Alove. A C#m D A
