Folk Guitar Version of Madonna's "Material Girl" in G+G
For E minor 7Em7 I recommend using the 020000 chord shape.

Verse 1:

If they don't give me proper credit, I just walk away
G+G        E minorEm
They can beg and they can plead
  C majorC         D MajorD
But they can't see the light, that's right

If they can't raise my interest, then I have to let them be
G+G         E minorEm
