_ _ _ When I heard the _ men at the church [N] saying _ that _ _ Led Zeppelin was bringing [Am] the devil to
their daughters, I thought, oh yippee, [A] that was [Dm] wild.

[Gm] _ _ _ _ [Dm] I don't know if _ _ [Ab] I _ [A] _ _
was trying [Gb] to find a way to [A] re-begin [Fm] myself.
_ [A] _ Trying to be so [Dm] many _ _ different _ [Eb]
musicians [Dm] and yet _ _ [E] you can do many [N] things, but that doesn't
mean you should be doing many things. _ _
_ _ Watching _ him _ _ try and _ stylistically _ _ experiment but also _ not be all things to [Gm] all people. _
[D] That's the one thing that [F] he's been _ quite sure [Dm]-footed about. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
[Gm] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
It's [D] sort of a blueprint.
It reminds _ [N] all of us coming behind _ _ _ that you have to keep _ _ _ allowing yourself _ _ to be open
to what moves you.
_ Because if you're _ trying on something that _ ultimately isn't you, you need to give it
a go at least anyway.
You can always discard it and say, well I tried it [Eb] but that's not [E] me.

I remember walking into the [A] studio. _
_ _ Robert [E] was there and we were _ [Ab] tracking down by [Am] the seaside with his musicians.
_ [Em] I was playing _ [E] piano _ _ _ and _ _ _ singing while he was _ tracking [N] live.
I think to watch him work _ with something that has stayed with me, the [E] _
_ _ generosity _ _ _ of _ _ sharing
_ [A] his _ _ [Dm] _ [A] music, _ his creative process.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Gb] This might sound a bit _ _
_ [N] strange, _ _ _ _ but watching Robert perform _ _ _ _ made me _ really [Eb] _ _ _ [D] rethink [E] how _
_ [Em] to be a woman.
_ [A] _ _
[Am] _ Because _ _ _ [E] I think there's a real _ _ _ [Am] _
femininity _ _ _ _ _ [E] _
with _ _ _ the [Am] _ _
Hammer of Thor.
_ _ There's this _ _ [E] _ duality [A] that he _ _ _ [E] possesses. _
_ _ _ At a time when a lot of women in music were _ _ _ circumcising their [A] femininity, _ _ _ thinking that
that made them [F] _
stronger, _ [Ab] _ I [B] began to [E] realize that that _ didn't make me stronger [A] at all,
_ but just _ empty. _
_ [Am] And so maybe [E] to see _ _ _ a guy _ _ _ not [A] shying away _ from the ancient feminine, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ the land, the great
mother, _ _ made me realize _ that _ _ _
_ [Ab] I needed to [A] claim it for myself.
_ [E] And so yeah, he was a real beacon at a time when I _ _ _ needed it.
