Key: Em Verse 1: Em I didn't drink 'til I was 27 Am That day I went to numb the pain inside me C B The emptiness was showing Am The hate around me growing C B Em I thought I had to bury my self-worth Em The boulevard of broken dreams was building Am The whiskey kept on turning into wine C B Some people started asking Am Oh, where was all this going? C B Em Then tried to pull the wool over my eyes
Pre-Chorus: Em I've always been a lady, yeah G And that always saved me Am B I had to see the other side Chorus: C Am Em G My mama said, "Go marry rich, girl" C Am Em G It'll take your problems all away C Am But I lead life with my heart Em G And the world's not always fair C B Em I'm gonna make myself that billionaire Verse 2: Em I've never been impressed with money or power Am 'Cause I thought I'd be the one to rule the world C B So many men would tell me Am It would be the gifts they gave me C B Em But that just don't make them my Mr. Right Pre-Chorus: Em My name is Delta lady G You can't try to change me Am B I'll give you many reasons why but Chorus: C Am Em G My mama said, "Go marry rich, girl" C Am Em G It'll take your problems all away C Am But I lead life with my heart Em G And the world's not always fair C B Em I'm gonna make myself that billionaire Bridge: Em B D A He said, "Baby hold my hand" Em B D A I'm not your baby, understand Em B D A I'm gonna need a grown-ass man C B Who takes me for who I am Chorus: C Am Em G My mama said, "Go marry rich, girl" C Am Em G It'll take your problems all away C Am But I lead life with my heart Em G And the world's not always fair C B Em I'm gonna make myself that billionaire Outro: Em Shake that wannabe Em You're only gonna end up lonely Em 'Cause he's no good, you see Em The real ones love unconditionally Em You got to shake that wannabe Em You're only gonna end up lonely
