Chords for Natalie Merchant - Big Girls (Lyric Video)

_ _ [B] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Always thought the [C#m] game came easy
_ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ You never thought about it [B] _ twice
You never [F#] thought about it [G#m] _ twice
Your luck was never [C#m] leaving
_ _ _ _ _ [C#] _ _ _
_ So you just threw [B] the dice
_ [F#] And time was on your [G#m] _ side _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ And time [E] was always on [B] your side _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ The times got tough and life [C#m] got even
_ _ [G#] _ _ [F#] _ _ _
So you told yourself some [B] lies
So you [F#] told yourself some [G#m] lies
And now you truly do [C#m] believe that
_ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
There's only one way to _ [B] survive
You gotta [F#] hold on [G#m] to your pride
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
Big [E] girls, they don't [B] cry
_ _ Heart _ _ [A] _ _
_ [E] of stone gone cold as [B]
ice
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
Close [E] the _ door, _ keep it all _ inside _ _
_ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _ _
[G#] _ _ _ [B] _ You trusted love but [C#m] love's deceiving _ _
_ And [F#] _ _ _ you [F#] know that it's [B] _ unfair
You know love is [G#m] so unfair
But it hurts the [C#m] worst, believe _ me
_ _ [F#] _ _ _ When you show them that you [B] care
So never [F#] show them [G#m] that you _ care
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ Big [E] girls, they don't [B] cry _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ Heart [E] of stone gone cold as ice _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ Close [G#m] the door, _ _ keep it all [A] _ _ inside
_ No when [F#] to hide, _ _ _ no [C#m] when to fight
_ _ Tell [A] the _ _ lies, _ know how [F#] to _ survive _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[D#] _ _ _ Don't let them see, [G#m] don't give yourself away _ _
_ [E] _ _ Hold [B] on, [F#] hold _ on
_ _ Keep [D#] _ _ _ _ your head girl, [G#m] there's so much more to stay _ _
[E] _ _ _ [B] Hold on, [F#] hold _ _ on _ _ _
[C#m] _ _ Hold _ on, _
[A] _ _ hold _ on _
[F#] _ _ Hold _ on _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _
[D#] _ _ So you took a hit [G#m] and the ship is slowing [G#m] down _
[E] _ _ Hold [B] _ on, [F#] hold _ on
A _ _
[D#] _ _ _ _ spark is lit and [G#m] the fire's spreading _ fast _ _
[E] _ _ _ [B] Hold on, hold [F#] _ on
_ _ Hold _
[C#m] _ _ _ _ _ on, _
[A] _ _ hold _ on _
[F#] _ _ Hold _ _ _ _ on _ _ _ _ _ _
[D#] _ _ _ Sea clouds are bursting [G#m] and water's rising fast _ _
[E] _ _ Hold [B] on, hold [F#] _ _ on
_ _ [F#] _ _
[D#] _ _ Stop the wrecking ball or the [G#m] walls are coming _ down _ _
[E] _ _ Hold [B] on, _ _ _
[F#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[C#m] _ _ hold _ on _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[F#] Hold _ _ on, _ hold on _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ Hold on, _ _ _ [B] hold on _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
