For My Lady chords
The Moody Blues 1972 (Seventh Sojourn album, Ray Thomas)

Capo III*

E Bm A E 2x

   E                 BmMy boat sails stormy seas
        A                  EBattles oceans filled with tears
   E                 BmAt last my port's in view
         A               ENow that I've discovered you

E      A               C#mOh I'd give my life so lightly
       F#m    C#mFor my gentle lady
        Bm            EGive it freely and completely
      ATo my lady

E Bm A E

   E                  BmAs life goes drifting by
       A                    ELike a breeze she'll gently sigh
    E              BmAnd slowly bow her head
            A               EThen you'll hear her softly cry.

E      A               C#mOh I'd give my life so lightly
       F#m    C#mFor my gentle lady
        Bm            EGive it freely and completely
      ATo my lady

Dm                      AWords that you say when we're alone
       Dm                        AThough actions speak louder than words
    Dm                 ABut all I can say is I love you so
   Bm                ETo drive away all my hurt

E      A               C#mOh I'd give my life so lightly
       F#m    C#mFor my gentle lady
        Bm            EGive it freely and completely
      ATo my lady

E Bm A E 2x

    E               BmSet sail before the sun
         A                    EFeel the warmth that's just begun
      E              BmShare each and every dream
       A            EThey belong to everyone.

E      A               C#mOh I'd give my life so lightly
       F#m    C#mFor my gentle lady
        Bm            EGive it freely and completely
      A      A . . .To my lady
