Intro: D G D G

          D             G                         D
I jumped in, looking to make a wave,
          G                                             D
I was working what the good Lord gave,
       G                            Dm      C
Baby, here I go, you’ll be praying for land
                     D
While I’m rocking the boat!

          D                                     G               D
And I’m moving, come on and join in my parade,
 G                                                        D
I’ve been waiting for the rhythm to change,
G
Now the time has come,
             Dm      C                 D
So turn on the flames and turn up the sun!

         G               C                      G
Like fireworks shooting into the sky,
  C                         F       C           D
I wanna color the dark with the light.
              G             C              G
Like a diamond, sitting on a ring,
  C                           F     C         D
I’m just a girl that wants to be seen,
C                                            D
Every time, I’m looking for a place to shine!

D                                 G                        D
So take time, if I’m a little too much to take,
                       G                                 D
You’re gonna let a good time go to waste,
               G
So baby, get in line,
                    Dm       C              D
Cause it’s better to play than sit on the side
      D                     G                           D
I’m thinking, of busting through the door,
               G                                  D
Leaving everybody begging for more,
                 G
And you know it’s true,
                         Dm       C                    D
When you’re a girl like me, you got nothing to lose

           G              C                     G
Like fireworks shoot into the sky,
C                           F        C           D
I wanna color the dark with the light.
                G            C              G
Like a diamond, sitting on a ring,
C                            F     C           D
I’m just a girl that wants to be seen,
            C                                              D
Every time, I’m looking for a place to shine!

C                        (F)        D
Looking for a place to shine.
