Thank you, thank you very much.
Briefly, but we've been playing music now since,
professionally since 1997,
and we've done a lot of really crazy stuff,
and I am absolutely terrified
to be standing right here right now.
I feel like I might go down in the middle of this song, so.
I'll save what we have to say about Pink for our second song.
This song is our own, and I just want to say that,
you know, Sarah and I were raised by a single parent,
and our mom raised us to be proud and out.
When we came out in 1997,
it coincided with the start of our record career.
A lot of people advised us not to come out,
but we had been raised by a very strong feminist mother
who encouraged us to be ourselves,
and I feel so proud to be in a room
full of so many [F] incredible women.
[E] I just, [G#] I think it's something we take for granted,
but there is so many incredible women
at the helm here in this business,
and I just feel proud to be sharing this [N] space with you,
so thank you for having us.
Thanks to Billboard for having us.

[G#m]
[A#] [F#] Do you remember [G#] I searched you out
How I clumbed your [A#m] city's walls
[F#] Do you remember me [G#] as the vow
How I prayed for your [A#m] cause
[G#] I stood [F#] still, it's what I [A#m] did
[G#] Love
[C#] like [F#] ours was never fixed
I stuck [G#] around
I did [F#] the [C#] illusion,
[G#] you were the time
I was a [F#] fool for love
[C#] I [G#] was a fool for love
[C#] I
[F#] [C#] was [G#]
[F#] a fool
[C#]
[G#] And
[A#m] [F#]
[G#m]
[A#m] [F#] you blamed me and blocked [G#] me out
How long did you think [A#m] I'd last
[F#] Then you disappeared for [G#] weeks to power
How many times could I [A#m] pack
[G#] But
[F#] standing still is all I [A#m] did
[A#] Love
[C#] like ours was never fixed
I [G#] stuck around
I did [F#] the illusion, [C#]
[G#] you were the time
I was [F#] a fool for love
[C#] I [G#] was a fool for love
[C#] I was [F#] a fool
[C#]
[G#]
[F#] [C#]
[G#] If
[F#] [C#] you're worried that I [G#] might have changed
[F#] Left [C#] behind all [G#] of my foolish ways
You [F#] best be looking [C#] for
[G#] somebody else
[C#] Without a foolish heart
[G#] A foolish heart
[A#m] [G#] But
[F#] still it's what we [A#m] did
[G#] Love
[C#] like [F#] ours was never fixed
[C#] I stuck [G#] around
[F#] [C#] I saved [G#] you every time
I was [F#] a fool for love
[C#] I [G#] was a fool for love
[C#] I was [F#] a fool
I was [C#] a [G#]
[F#] [C#] fool
