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.
I do it for the joy it bCrings
Because I'm a joyful girlG Am
Because the world owes me nothingC
And we owe each other the worGld Am
I do it because it's the least I can do C
I do it because I learned it fGrom you Am
I do it just becausCe I want to
GBecause I want to Am
Everything I do is judCged
And they mostly get it wrong, but oh welGl Am
'Cuz the bathroom mirror has not bCudged
And the woman who lives there can't teGll Am
The truth from the stuff that they Csay
And she looks me in the eye G Am
And says would you prefer the easy way? C
No, well O.K. Gthen, don't cry Am
[The part in between consists of Dm, C, Em, and G.]
And I wonder if everything IC do
I Gdo iAmnstead
Of something I want to doC more
The quesGtion fills my head Am
I know that there's no grand plan here C
This is just the way it goeGs Am
And when everything else seems unclear C
I guess at least I Gknow Am
