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