Intro:
|Dm   Dm    |G7     Bb    |Am      |Am     A     |


Dm      Dm                     G7               G
She's faced the hardest times you could imagine
    Bb              Bb                   F        A
And many times, Her eyes fought back the tears
Dm           Dm                          G7       Bb
And when her youthful world was about to fall in
     Bb               Bb  
Each time her slender shoulders,
         Bb                Bb  
Bore the weight of all her fears
      Bb            Bb   
And a sorrow no one hears
      Bb       Am       Gm             D
Still rings in midnight silence in her ears


        Bb  C           F     
Let her cry for she's a lady
        Bb   A            Dm
Let her dream for she's a child
        Bb        Am     Gm
Let the rain fall down upon her
        Bb              Bb             F
She's a free and gentle flower growing wild


Bb        F
And if by chance I should hold her
Bb              F
Let me hold her for a time
Bb             F
But if allowed just one possession
        Gm                C            F
I would pick her from the garden to be mine


Interlude:
|Dm      |Dm      |Dm   Dm    |G7     Bb    |
|A       |A       |


Dm         Dm               G7                 G
Be careful how you touch her for she'll awaken
    Bb               Bb           F        A
And sleep's the only freedom that she knows
Dm           Dm                G7                Bb
And when you walk into her eyes you won't believe
    Bb               Bb  
The way she's always payin'
      Bb             Bb   
For a debt she never owes
      Bb                Bb  
And a silent wind still blows
      Bb       Am       Gm             D
That only she can hear and so, she goes


        Bb  C           F     
Let her cry for she's a lady
        Bb   A            Dm
Let her dream for she's a child
        Bb        Am     Gm
Let the rain fall down upon her
        Bb              Bb             F
She's a free and gentle flower growing wild


        Bb  C           F     
Let her cry for she's a lady
        Bb   A            Dm
Let her dream for she's a child
        Bb        Am     Gm
Let the rain fall down upon her
        Bb              Bb             F
She's a free and gentle flower growing wild
Gm      Bb             F
She's a flower growing wild

She's free...
