Work Your Way Out Chords by Ani Difranco

_ _ _ _ _ _ [B] _ _
_ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Lying on the floor, four stories high, in the corridor between the asphalt and the sky
[Bm] I am caught like bottled [B] water, the light daughter _ _
_ And I wonder what you look like under your t-shirt
I wonder what you sound like when you're not wearing words
[Bm] And I wonder what we have when we're not [E] pretending
[B] It's never ending, haven't you heard?
[E] And I don't need to tell you what it is about
You just start on the inside and work your [B] way out _ _ _
_ _ _ _ We are all polylingual, but some of us pretend
That there's virtue in relying on not trying to understand
[Bm] We're all citizens of the womb [B] before we subdivide
[B] Into sexes and shades, this side, that side
And [E] I don't need to tell [Bm] you what it is about
[E] You just start on the inside and work your [B] way out _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] No, I don't need to tell you what it is about
You just start on the inside and [Em] work your [B] way _ out _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Undressing [B] for the fan like it was a man
Wondering about all the things that I'll never understand
There [Bm] are some things that you can't know unless you've been [B] there
But how far we could go if we started to share
And [E] I don't need to tell you what this is about
You just start on the inside and work your way out _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] No, I don't need to tell you what it is about
You just start on the inside and work your [B] way _ _ out
_ _ _ _ [E] No, I don't need to tell you what this is about
You just start on the inside, on the [B] inside
_ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _
_ _ Lying on the floor, four stories [B] high
In the corridor between the asphalt and the sky
I [D] am caught like bottled water [B] in the light [B] dot _ _ _
[Bm] Oh yes, I am caught like bottled water in the light [B] dot _
_ _ [Bm] Oh yes, I am caught like bottled water in the light [B] dot _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
