 Now won't you run and tell your boyfriend
      E          C#m         G#m      A 
 Tell him don't hold his breath for me
 I've got some money I was saving
 Got some hearts that I'll be breaking
 Know someday they'll make a martyr out of me
 I know someday they'll make a martyr out of me
 
 She's so fine

 I'm a lady Got my mind made up, Got my mind made up
 
 I know I spend magic reel it out
 Try to hold a light to me
 I'm a lady
 Got my mind made up
 Got my mind made up

 ---VERSE-----
 

 
 I like to watch the way the wind blows
 What does it know that I don't yet
 Ooh, oh, look so pretty now
 You're just so sweet
 Let's see how far you can get
 See just how far you can get
 
 She's so fine

 ---CHORUS----
 

 
 And I like sometimes to wave it high
 Up where everyone can see
 I'm a lady
 Got my mind made up
 Got my mind made up
 
 I know I spend magic reel it out
 Try to hold a light to me
 I'm a lady
 Got my mind made up
 Got my mind made up

 ----INTERLUDE---
 

 Dreams are gone
 And the dreams are gone
 No one said, no
 No one said
 Make something with what's in your head
 And the dreams are gone
 And the dreams are gone
