these are the chords for the version she plays at the bronco bowl theatre in
texas , 1999 . when you play the C chord , put your pinky finger on the first string ,
third fret . watch the video to get the timing . it sounds like it’s in a tad
different key in the beginning; if anyone would like to correct me , please do .
C
i do it for the joy it brings
G Am
because i’m a joyful girl
C
because the world owes me nothing
G Am
and we owe each other the world
C
i do it because it’s the least i can do
G Am
i do it because i learned it from you
C
i do it just because i want to
G Am
because i want to
C
everything i do is judged
G Am
and they mostly get it wrong , but oh well
C
’cuz the bathroom mirror has not budged
G Am
and the woman who lives there can’t tell
C
the truth from the stuff that they say
G Am
and she looks me in the eye
C
and says would you prefer the easy way?
G Am
no , well o . k . then , don’t cry
[ the part in between consists of Dm , C , Em , and G . ]
C
and i wonder if everything i do
G Am
i do instead
C
of something i want to do more
G Am
the question fills my head
C
i know that there’s no grand plan here
G Am
this is just the way it goes
C
and when everything else seems unclear
G Am
i guess at least i know
