CAPO 6TH


G              
Little girl alone on the playground
D                           C9
Tired of gettin' teased and gettin' pushed around
Em
Wishin' she was invisible
   C9
To them

G
She ran home cryin'

"Why do they hate me?"
D                  C9
And Mama wiped the tears and said
              Em                    D
"Baby, you're brave and you're beautiful.

                   G
So, hold your head high.
D                  G
Don't ever let 'em define
D            C9
The light in your eyes.
         Em
Love yourself, give them Hell.
C9
You can take on this world.
Em
You just stand and be strong
         D
And then fight
       G
Like a girl."

G
At 31 she was wheelin' and dealin'
D                         C9
Kept on hittin' that same glass ceilin'
Em                                   C9
She was never gonna one of the boys, no
G
She coulda gave up on her ambition
D                              C9
And spent the rest of her life just wishin'
Em                                 D
Instead she listened to her mama's voice sayin'

                G
"Hold your head high.
D                    G
Don't ever let 'em define
    D
The light in your eyes.
         Em
Love yourself, give them Hell.
C9
You can take on this world.
Em
You just stand and be strong,
         D
And then fight
       G
Like a girl."


         C9
Oh, with style and grace
Em                D
Kick *** and take names

G
Ten years of climbin' that ladder
D                       C9
Oh, but money and power don't matter
Em                        D
When the doctor said "the cancer spread"
G 
She holds on tight to her husband and babies
          D                             C9
And says "this is just another test God gave me.
Em                            D
And I know just how to handle this"

                  G
I'll hold my head high
D                     G
I'll never let this define
D            C9
The light in my eyes
Em
Love myself, give it Hell
C9
I'll take on this world
Em
If I stand and be strong
C9
No, I'll never give up
Em                  C9
I will conquer with love
         D
And I'll fight
       G
Like a girl


C9
Ooh
