[E] Um, you know, I love you too.
Are you having a [N] good time?
The reason I'm not stepping on those chairs is because they want me those folded in kind of wear.
And my socks are way too thin.
[E] You know, remember that?
No, you probably don't know my socks.
What [Eb] is it?
My shoes are loose and my socks are too tight.
[Dm] Anyway, [Eb] um, I just want [E] to say, you know, [B] I [Db] learned about sisterhood when I was five.
[Bb] You know, I lived next door to my [N] aunt and uncle, but it was my mother's sister and Nana who lived upstairs.
And we lived in a double house that had shingles the same color as Good and Blessed TNV.
[Ab] Which I was always so excited about until I learned later [N] on in life, those were the ones with asbestos.
[Abm] Yeah, but [Cm] it didn't matter then.
And my aunt Grace [E] and my mother were so close that, you know, my aunt would say things [Ab] like,
May-May, you know, she called her May.
There were three Mays in our family.
My [B] family only named the same thing three times.
[Ab] And then after that they [D] moved on.
So there [G] was Big May, Middle May, [N] Little May.
There was Big Vinny, Little Vinny, and Little Little Vinny who really spelled the marquee Little Little Vinny.
Right?
So anyway, so my mom was Middle May and Aunt Grace would say things like,
You know, the hat is cool with May.
And then, and [Ab] then of course I had a sister.
[Ebm] And I was a little sister, but my mother made a mistake and said [N] that I was born to be her friend.
Right?
And they moved all the way to California too.
Doesn't stop me from visiting her though, you know.
Because even when my sister, when I was small, my sister would go out and play with somebody else.
I would have like a big tangerine.
You know, very genetic.
Me, you know, and I would be saying to her, you can't play.
[E]
[N]
So that was sisterhood [D] for me.
[G]
Until I got older [Abm] and read a book called Sisterhood is a Powerful Thing.
[Em] And then [B] of course in my life I wound [N] up singing the sisterhood song of Eva.
And two years ago I got all these texts from, not texts, but pictures from my [F] friends who went to the Great Women's [Cm] March.
And there were all these pictures [B] of these women [Ab] carrying signs, young women saying,
[N] Girls just want to have fun and be free.
So I still think sisterhood is a powerful thing.
What did you say?
They have to tell me what time it is because sometimes I just want to go.
[Abm] Anyway, [N]
this one's for you gals and you guys because you're the best.
