Sisters Are Doin' For Themselves - Eurythmics
[Intro]
Em Em Em Em
[Verse 1]
Em
Now there was a time when they used to say
Em
That behind every - "great man"
Em
There had to be a - "great woman"
Em
But in these times of change you know
Em
That it's no longer true
Em
So we're coming out of the kitchen
B7 B7
Cause there's something we forgot to say to you (we say)
|[Chorus]
|G A B7 Em
|Sisters are doing it for themselves
| G A
|Standing on their own two feet
| Em Em
|And ringing on their own bells
|G A B7 Em Em
|Sisters are doing it for themselves
[B7*]
[Verse 2]
Em
Now this is a song to celebrate
Em
The conscious liberation of the female state
Em
Mothers, daughters and their daughters too
Em
Woman to woman
Em
We're singing with you
Em
The "inferior sex" got a new exterior
Em
We got doctors, lawyers, politicians too
Em
Everybody - take a look around
Em
Can you see - can you see - can you see
Em
There's a woman right next to you
|[Chorus]
|G A B7 Em
|Sisters are doing it for themselves
| G A
|Standing on their own two feet
| Em Em
|And ringing on their own bells
|G A B7 Em Em
|Sisters are doing it for themselves
[Bridge]
C
Now we ain't making stories
A
And we ain't laying plans
C
Cause a man still loves a woman
A B7
And a woman still loves a man*
(Just the same though)
[Kazoo solo] (same as Intro)
Em Em Em Em
|[Chorus]
|G A B7 Em
|Sisters are doing it for themselves
| G A
|Standing on their own two feet
| Em Em
|And ringing on their own bells
|G A B7 Em Em
|Sisters are doing it for themselves
G A B7 Em Em
Sisters are doing it for themselves
(Slowing)
G A B7 Em
Sisters are doing it for themselves
