Stronger Woman

[Intro]
A# D# Cm F 2x


[Verse]
  A#                   
  I guess you could say
     F
I'm one of those girls
       D#           
  That's always been
      F
with one of those guys
    D#
You know the type
                   
  Like right now, he
  F
sleeps while I write
         A#
But it's better than crying
    F
I'm worn out from trying
     D#                
  From loving a man who
        F
always makes it clear
        D#
I'm not welcome here
                         F
Just till he's hungry or frisky

or needs something clean
        D#
And you know what I mean
          F
But not tonight
       D#                F
'Cause come the morning light, oh


[Chorus]
          A#    D#  Cm   
  I'm gonna love my-self
           F
more than anyone else
  A#     D#  Cm       
  Believe in me, even
    F
if someone can't see
    A#        D#        Cm   F
The stronger woman in me
             A#     D#        Cm
I'm going to be my own best friend
           F
Stick with me till the end
      A#    D#      
  Won't lose myself
  Cm     F
again, never, no,
                 Gm       F
'Cause there's a stronger woman,
  D#~
A stronger woman in me


[Interlude]
A#   D#   Cm   F


[Verse]
A#                 F
Light bulbs buzz, I get up
    D#
And head to my drawer
       F              D#
I wish there was more I could say
             F
Another fairytale fades to gray
     A#              F
I've lived on hope, like a child
D#                  
  Walking that mile,
  F
faking that smile
D#                      
  All the while, wishing
    F
my heart had wings
D#                              F
Well from now on, I'm going to be
D#                     
  The kind of woman I'd
                     F
want my daughter to be, oh


[Chorus]
          A#    D#  Cm   
  I'm gonna love my-self
           F
more than anyone else
  A#     D#  Cm       
  Believe in me, even
    F
if someone can't see
    A#        D#        Cm    F
The stronger woman in me
             A#     D#        Cm
I'm going to be my own best friend
           F
Stick with me till the end
      A#    D#      
  Won't lose myself
  Cm       F
again, never, no,
                 Gm       F
'Cause there's a stronger woman,
D#
Stronger woman in me


[Bridge]
        Cm                F
This is me, packing up my bags
            Cm  
  And this is me,
                F
headed for the door
            Cm      
  And this is me, the
               F
best you ever had


[Chorus]
          A#    D#  Cm   
  I'm gonna love my-self

more than anyone else

if someone can't see

The stronger woman in me

I'm going to be my own best friend
