KRIS KRISTOFFERSON - The Lady's Not For Sale guitar chord

The Lady's Not For Sale

written by Kristofferson/Pugh

from the Monument/Legacy re-issue of "Kristofferson"

tabbed 9/23/05

INTRO: G Cadd9 G Cadd9

G C

She longed to be a lady

G C

When she was just a child

G/B Em A7

But where the grass was greener, Lord

D

She done her growin' wild

G C

And she tried to spread her tender wings

G C

And never left the ground

C/B G/B Em C

So she turned to dreams at sweet sixteen

D G

And woke up comin' down

CHORUS:

C G

But she tries in her way, climbin' higher

A7 D

And she dies each time she fails

C C/B G/B Em C

So give her a home or leave her alone

D G

The lady's not for sale

INTRO

G C

She ain't ashamed to show her soul

G C

And she'll sell it for a song

G/B Em A7

But free don't mean she's easy

D

Or right for goin' wrong

G

So let her be the lady, Lord

C G

She wants so bad to be

C C/B G/B Em C

Let her win the gentleman

D G

That she was born to please

CHORUS

INTRO (and fade)
