My Sweet Lady

John Denver

Intro: D  G  D  G



D                   G

Lady, are you crying?

            D                    G

Do the tears belong to me?

             D            F#m   Bm 

Did you think our time together

             Em    A7

Was all gone?

D                           G

Lady, you've been dreaming

           D                  G

I'm as close as I can be

          D          Bm         Em  

And I swear to you our time

       A7      D   D7

Has just begun.

G                              A                     D   D7

Close your eyes and rest your weary mind

    G                   A7                          D   D7

I promise I will stay right here beside you

     G                          A                         D

Today our lives were joined, became entwined

          Bm

And I wish that you could know 

                    Em   A7

How much I love you.

Lady, are you happy?

Do you feel the way I do?

Are there meanings that you've never

Seen before?

Lady, my sweet lady,

I just can't believe it's true

And it's like I've never

ever loved before.

Close your eyes and rest your weary mind.

I promise I will stay right here beside you.

Today our lives were joined, became entwined,

And I wish you could know how much I love you.

Lady, are you crying?

Do the tears belong to me?

Did you think our time together

Was all gone?

Lady, my sweet lady,

I'm as close as I can be

And I swear to you our time

Has just begun...
