[Verse 1]
Dm She's facedDm/C the hardest times Dm/B you could iG7magine, and
Bb/Cmany times, Her eC7yes fought back the tFmaj7ears A7
Dm And when her Dm/Cyouthful world was abDm/Bout to fall inBbmaj7. Each
Bb/Ctime her slender C7shoulders,
Bore the Bb/Cweight of all her C7fears
And a Bb/Csorrow no one C7hears
Still Bbmaj7rings in mAm7idnight sGmilence Gm/C in herDsus ears D
[Chorus]
Let her Bbmaj7cry C7 for she's a Fmaj7lady
Let her Bbmaj7dream A7 for she's a Dmchild
Let the Bbmaj7rain fall Am7down upGm7on her
She's a Bb/Cfree and gentle C7flower growing wFmaj7ild
[Interlude]
|Bbmaj7 Fmaj7
And if by chance I should hold her
Bbmaj7 Let me holdFmaj7 her for a time
Bbmaj7 But if allFmaj7owed just one possession
I would Gm7pick her from the gCsusarden to be Fmaj7mine

[Verse 2]
DmBe careful Dm/Chow you touch her Dm/B for she'll awakeG7n. And
Bb/Csleep's the only C7freedom that she kFmaj7nows A7
Dm And when you Dm/Cwalk into her eyesDm/B you won't belBbmaj7ieve
The Bb/Cway she's always C7payin'
For a dBb/Cebt she never C7owes
And a sBb/Cilent wind still bC7lows
That oBbmaj7nly sAm7he can hGm7ear and sGm/Co, she gDsusoes D
[Chorus]
Let her Bbmaj7cry C7 for she's a Fmaj7lady
Let her Bbmaj7dream A7 for she's a Dmchild
Let the rBbmaj7ain fall dAm7own uGm7pon her
She's a Bb/Cfree and gentle C7flower growing Fmaj7wild
Let her Bbmaj7cry C7 for she's a lFmaj7ady
Let her dBbmaj7ream A7 for she's a Dmchild
Let the rBbmaj7ain fall dAm7own upGm7on her
She's a Bb/Cfree and gentle C7flower growing wiFmaj7ld
Bb/C She's a fC7lower growing wFmaj7ild
