David Allan Coe Would You Be My Lady E A B E Would you hold on to my hand when I get lonely A B E Could I come to you whenever I'm in need A B E A Would you always have a place for me to lay my body down E B Would You Be My Lady, in the morning E Would You Be My Lady. Chorus: A B E A Would you walk with me across the bridges I forgot to burn E B Could you face the future looking at my past A B E A If I took the time to teach you all the things you'll need to learn E B To be my lady, when I need you E Would You Be My Lady. A B E Does it matter to you that you're not my first love A B E Would you let a thing like that stand in your way A B E A If I said you was the woman that could ease my troubled mind E B Would You Be My Lady, when I need you E Would You Be My Lady. Chorus: A B E A Would you always have a place for me to lay my body down.
