Pay Gap Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Honey I work so hard for my money
And I leave my babies at [D]home
Breaking my back,
trying to bring home a check
And working my fingers to the [G]bone
But at the end of the day,
it feels like a game
[C]One I was born to lose
In [G]this institution,
[D]a dead revolution is [C]giving young women ab[G]use

[Verse 2]
Pay [D]gap, pay [C]gap
Why don't you do the [G]math
Pay [D]gap, pay gap
[C]Ripping my dollars in [G]half
[D][G]

[Verse 3]
It's not that I'm asking
for more than I'm owed
And I don't think I'm better than [D]you
They say that we live in the land
of the free
But sometimes that bell don't ring [G]true

[Verse 4]
[G]It's been that way with no equal pay
And I [C]wanna know when it'll be fixed
[G]Women do work and get
[D]treated like slaves
[C]Since [G]1776

[Verse 5]
Pay [D]gap, pay gap
Why don't you [C]do the [G]math
Pay [D]gap, pay gap
[C]Ripping my dollars in [G]half

[Interlude 1]
[G][D][G][Em][G]
[D][G]
[Bdim][C][G][D][C][G]

[Verse 6]
[G]No matter your religion,
no matter your race
No matter your [Em]ori e[D]ntation
No matter your creed and
no matter your taste
And no matter your orient[G]ation

[Verse 7]
[G]We're all the same in
the eyes of my God
But in [C]the eyes of rich white men
I'm [G]no more than a maid to
be [D]owned like a dog
And [C]a second class citizen

[Verse 8]
[G]Pay gap[D], pay gap[C]
Don't give me that feminism [G]crap
Pay [D]gap, pay gap
They're [C]ripping my dollars in [G]half

[Outro 1]
[G][D][G][D]
