Lady like you Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Well I was trying to get it on
just like you [D]did in that song
I was try[Em]ing to be strong
but it was tak[Bm]ing so long
It was a [Am]cold dark night
and I was [D]only trying to feel [G]at home[Am]
So I [G]took off my coat
and [D]the scarf from my throat
And I threw [Em]down my glove
and I said [Bm]I wasn't alone
And [Am]all you did was smile and said
Well [D]maybe I could stay for a while
[Bm]Oh, a [Am]lady like [G]you,
[D]I'd have to ac[C]cept your invitation
[D]A lady like you[G], girl,
[D]I never had[Am] much rep[D]utation anyway[Eb]
[Em]You put [C]Rome[G]o singing about
his king[D]s and queens
And you put Len[Em]in on communicating
thought[Bm]s and dreams
Well, you put [Am]me on,
saying things don't [D]always appear what [G]they seem
Whatever that means
[Am]Oh, so I[D] fell [G]on the floor
like the [D]one I broke
And [Em]I tried to explain just [C]what it was
[Bm]I really loved
But you told [Am]me I was lost
And [D]from now on there's
nothing to [C]lose
[Bm]Oh, no l[D]ady like y[G]ou
[D]Well, I have to ac[Am]cept your invit[D]ation
A lady like [G]you
[D]Might as well be the [C]best
[Am]of the situa[D]tion
[Eb]In any w[Em]ay, oh[D]
[C]And when the night got chilly bla[G]ck
[C][Bm][Am][G][C][C#dim][D][Bb][D]
Oh, you know I [G]was only [C]afraid [G]to fall
I [Em]was sitt[D]in' on the wall
I thought my [Em]life was mixed up
Well, [Bm]it was really just stuff
I took a [Am]taste of you
You just [D]gave me the key to it [G]all[Am]
All the [G]dreams I had about go[D]ing mad,
and the [Em]hours I spent [Bm]by
that monument
Watching Mar[Am]ilyn Monroe
just like a [D]baby rolling in the [C]snow
[Bm]She was a [D]lady l[Am]ike [G]you, o[D]h
I had to ac[C]cept [Am]her invita[D]tion
A lady like [G]you[Em][D]
Cause I never [Am]had much reputation
[D]And I'm in the pro[C]blem genera[Am]tion
[D]And this is no hig[C]h class sit[D]uation
Any[Eb]way[Em]
Oh, a lady [C]like [G]you[D]
[Em]She was a lady l[D]ike [G]you[D]
[Em]Little lady like[D] you[G][D]
[Em]Oh, tell me what can I[D] d[G]o now
[D]I g[Em]ot a lady like you[G][D]
[Em]Oh, that leather and her muse
[G]Wel[D]l, tel[Em]l me how
could I [D]re [G]fuse [D]you
[Em]Oh, [D]you'[G]re[D] onl[Em]y sixteen[D]
[G]An [D]d y[Em]ou know what I mea[D]n[G][D]
[Em]Oh, my, my, my, my, [G]my, my, my,
[D]my, [Em]my, my, [G]my[D]
[Em]Little rock an[D]d roll [G]clean, [D]yeah
[Em]
