[Intro]
Am G Dm F

Am
Circe was divine
          G
A tale of pearls before the swine
      Dm                      F
An empress, a brilliant sorceress

    Am
And then a lover scorned
           G
And that's how the story's told
          Dm                     F
Hold the rest, they stole the magic

    Am
And Sita's archetype:
            G
The perfect image of a wife
          Dm                   F
Did we ignore the fire in her soul?

   Am
Remember Amy's plea
            G
I know the poets disagree
                  Dm                       F
When it comes to love, did we even have control?


     Dm         F
They think they know us
   Am                          G (one strum)
Because they wrote the history books


               Am
Here's to the women (women)
     G                  D
Who don't ever seem to get a say
                   F
In how their pages get portrayed

              Am
Here's to the women
    G                    Dm
Who know everything the poets say
                  F
And be a menace anyway

     Am
The historians who looked away
    G
The game was set before it played
      Dm
We're breaking out behind the cage
        F
'Cause that's some shit that we won't take

    Am
The women
    G                     Dm
Who wrote stories in the roads they paved
                          A#          F
We're bringing back their golden age

Am   G   Dm   F

             This is our golden age

A#   Am


  Am                            G
A pretty penny prize without a thought behind the eyes
               Dm                 F
We don't get a say: it's "in our DNA"

       Am                    G
'Cause they refuse to see beyond commodities
          Dm                           F
We can be sweet with a vicious streak: call that dichotomy


     Dm             F
They think they own us
              Am                      G
But now we're taking back the history books



             Am
Here's to the women (women)
     G                  D
Who don't ever seem to get a say
                   F
In how their pages get portrayed

              Am
Here's to the women
    G                    Dm
Who know everything the poets say
                  F
And be a menace anyway

     Am
The historians who looked away
    G
The game was set before it played
      Dm
We're breaking out behind the cage
        F
'Cause that's some shit that we won't take

    Am

             This is our golden age

A#   F  Am


Am                    G
Queens wear more than just their crowns
     Dm                F
They keep castles from crumbling down
      Am                G
Yeah, you can't keep us on the ground
      Dm                      F
We're coming for your kingdom now
Am                    G
Queens wear more than just their crowns
     Dm                F
They keep castles from crumbling down
      Am                G
Yeah, you can't keep us on the ground
      Dm                      F
We're coming for your kingdom now
