F C
Little girl a-lone on the playground
G Am F
Tired of gettin' teased and gettin' pushed a-round
C G
Wishin' she was invisi-ble... To them
F
She ran home cryin'
C
"Why do they hate me?"
G Am
And Mama wiped the tears and said
F C G
"Ba-by, you're brave and you're beauti-ful"
C F
So, hold your head high
Am G C F
Don't ever let 'em de-fine
Am G
The light in your eyes
C F
Love your-self, give 'em hell
Am G
You can take on this world
Dm F
You just stand and be strong
G C F Am G
And then fight... Like a girl
F C
At thirty-one, she was wheelin' and dealin'
G Am
Kept on hittin' that same glass ceilin'
F C G
She was never gonna be one of the boys... No
F C
She coulda gave up on her ambition
G Am F
And spent the rest of her life just wish-in'
C G
Instead she listened to her mother's voice sayin'
C F
Hold your head high
Am G C F
Don't ever let 'em de-fine
Am G
The light in your eyes
C F
Love your-self, give 'em hell
Am G
You can take on this world
Dm F
You just stand and be strong
G C
And then fight... Like a girl
F
Oh, with style and grace
F
Have faith and take names
F C
Ten years of climbin' that ladder
G Am
Oh, but money and power don't matter
F C G
When the doctor said "The cancer spread"
F C
She holds on tight to her husband and babies
G Am F
And says "This is just another test God gave me.
C G
And I know just how to handle this"
C F
I'll hold my head high
Am G C F
I'll never let this de-fine
Am G
The light in my eyes
C F
Love my-self, give it hell
Am G
I'll take on this world
Dm F
If I stand and be strong
G
No, I'll never give up
Dm F
I will conquer with love
G C F Am G
And I'll fight... Like a girl
