A E
Little girl a-lone on the playground
B C#m A
Tired of gettin' teased and gettin' pushed a-round
E B
Wishin' she was invisi-ble... To them
A
She ran home cryin'
E
"Why do they hate me?"
B C#m
And Mama wiped the tears and said
A E B
"Ba-by, you're brave and you're beauti-ful"
E A
So, hold your head high
C#m B E A
Don't ever let 'em de-fine
C#m B
The light in your eyes
E A
Love your-self, give 'em hell
C#m B
You can take on this world
F#m A
You just stand and be strong
B E A C#m B
And then fight... Like a girl
A E
At thirty-one, she was wheelin' and dealin'
B C#m
Kept on hittin' that same glass ceilin'
A E B
She was never gonna be one of the boys... No
A E
She coulda gave up on her ambition
B C#m A
And spent the rest of her life just wish-in'
E B
Instead she listened to her mother's voice sayin'
E A
Hold your head high
C#m B E A
Don't ever let 'em de-fine
C#m B
The light in your eyes

You just stand and be strong
B E
And then fight... Like a girl
A
Oh, with style and grace
A
Have faith and take names
A E
Ten years of climbin' that ladder
B C#m
Oh, but money and power don't matter
A E B
When the doctor said "The cancer spread"
A E
She holds on tight to her husband and babies
B C#m A
And says "This is just another test God gave me.
E B
And I know just how to handle this"
E A
I'll hold my head high
C#m B E A
I'll never let this de-fine
C#m B
The light in my eyes
E A
Love my-self, give it hell
C#m B
I'll take on this world
F#m A
If I stand and be strong
B
No, I'll never give up
F#m A
I will conquer with love
B E A C#m B
And I'll fight... Like a girl
