Start Jamming...
This is where [A] we're used to seeing Cheryl Crow.
[A] [D]
[G] On stage with a [Dm] guitar in her hands.
[D]
But she says she's equally at home [Am] here.
Come right this [N] way.
I'm gonna bring you into the exam room.
Demonstrating how she gets an annual mammogram
or breast X-ray.
We're gonna do a top to bottom view
and then we're gonna be turning the machine
and doing a side view.
A subject that was once only whispered about.
[D#] Just gonna bring the machine up [A] here.
Women just didn't speak about their breasts.
It was so [E] taboo.
[A] Obviously we live in a different day and age
and I feel like I'm in a kind of a rarefied position
in that I have a [G] very large fan base of women
and those [D] women, they've got teenage girls now.
It's just great to at least stay on top of [N] your own health.
And [Am] she makes no bones about being a [E] paid spokesperson
for [N] Hologic, which makes 3D imaging machines for mammograms.
It can be the difference between a real harsh treatment
or something that's early and is [C] ultimately a cure.
[B] Crow has [E] reason to understand
the importance of early detection.
[A] In 2006, you discovered that you had breast cancer.
How did you even learn that you had it?
I had a routine mammogram.
It was a very inopportune time.
It was right before [N] the Grammys.
My personal life was kind of in turmoil
and the last thing I wanted to do was go have a mammogram.
But I did and the result was come back in six months
that we've seen something that's kind of suspect,
but let's keep an eye on it.
And my gynecologist called and said,
there is no six months, you don't wait.
Let's go and get a second opinion.
Let's get a needle biopsy and it turned out it was invasive.
Can you remember the emotions that went through your mind?
You're young and suddenly they're telling you
you've got breast [G] cancer.
Yeah, I do.
You know, it's like one of those scenes in a movie
where all of a sudden it's like, everything's swirling.
She said right off the bat, you're not gonna die.
This is very early.
We'll do a lumpectomy and radiation
and you'll get on with your life.
It [C] was a life that Cheryl Crow had [Am] worked hard to build.
[D]
Raised in Tennant, Missouri,
[G] she [Cm] worked as a grade school music [Am] teacher after college.
But on [G] the side, [E] she had a gig [C] singing commercial jingles.
[F] In and out, in and out,
that's what a [A#]
hamburger's all about.
All the grades.
But in 1986, she decided to try her luck in LA.
It took you a while.
Nobody was beating down your door and [E] saying,
please honey, come make us some music.
Yeah, every label [B] said we don't know what to [E] do
with a blue-eyed, kind of country soul singer.
[B] I [A] was pretty much turned down [E] by everybody.
♪ All I wanna do is have some fun
[Gm] [F#m] ♪
In 1993, she finally broke [D] through.
♪ All I [E] wanna do is have some fun ♪
♪ Until [C] the sun comes up [D] over Santa Monica Boulevard ♪
She had [G] a string of hits,
eventually racking up nine Grammy Awards.
♪ Like Steve, [F] like Lee, [C]
like [G] Sheena, like [F] it [C] or not ♪
Then in 2006, at [G] age 44, a [F] double [C] whammy.
Not only cancer, but the end of her [G] engagement
to cyclist Lance Armstrong.
[A] The whole saga unfolding publicly.
You can work so long and have big selling records,
but when your life falls apart,
you become like an A [N] celebrity.
So suddenly there was a convergence
of people being interested in my intrusion.
She had 33 radiation treatments.
Every morning I had the opportunity to just lay there
with my arm above my head and reassess my life.
And when she got a clean bill of health,
she decided to take her mom's advice
and not wait for marriage to have children.
She just said, adopt, get a surrogate.
Your life doesn't have to look like
the life you were born into.
And that's what I did.
I just thought, you know what?
Life's so short.
She dotes on six year old Levi
and his big brother, nine year old Wyatt.
[B] And action.
But she's also found [C#] time to launch a new line of clothing.
I love when you look off and find [F#] that lens.
Which she'll soon peddle on [C] HSN.
All right, so maybe the sleeves need to be slender.
Working from her converted barn in Nashville,
she's developing pieces based on her all American style.
[Em] It's a great way to get clothes [D] out to people
who can't afford the $350 jeans.
Which, you know, I [G#] go to my hometown all the time
and that is basically middle America.
Those are the people who are more economically strapped.
That's who you want these clothes to appeal to?
I think [B] that's kind of who buy my records.
And yes, she's also got a new record coming next month
called Be [B] Myself.
The first single, which she recently performed
at LA's famed Troubadour, is called Halfway There.
♪ Baby if you [Bm] dare, if you really care [G] ♪
♪ Baby if you dare, won't you meet [C#] me [B] halfway there ♪
She says the [Bm] song is about urging people
to listen [G] to each other
in today's vitriolic political [B] climate.
Doesn't matter if you're this person [D] and I'm [G] that person.
Don't we all want the same thing at the end of the day?
♪ Meet me halfway [B] there ♪
But along with the song she sings,
Crowe [E] says she'll continue to talk,
urging women [B] to get an annual [F#] mammogram.
I was healthy.
I didn't have any family history.
The technology is getting better and better.
So at a certain age, take it into your own hands
to make sure that you're your advocate.
I look at the opportunity as more of a gift
than a [G] responsibility.
It's worth being said.
