Chords with lyrics

Verse 1:
E minorEm              A minorAm
Well that man over there says women
     E minorEm
need to be helped into carriages

and lifted over ditches
    E minorEm         A minorAm
and to have the best place everywhere

   E minorEm         A minorAm          E minorEm
Well nobody ever helped me into carriages or over mud puddles,

  A minorAm        E minorEm
or give me any best place

E minorEm      A minorAm   E minorEm    A minorAm
and ain't I a woman? (ain't I a woman?)

E minorEm           A minorAm
Look at me, look at my arms

Verse 2:

    E minorEm           A minorAm
I have plowed and planted and gathered into barns

and no man could head me

  E minorEm    A minorAm   E minorEm    A minorAm
and ain't I a woman? (ain't I a woman?)

Verse 3:
    E minorEm        A minorAm
I could work as much, and eat as much as a man
when I could get it
  E minorEm        A minorAm
and bear the lash as well
     E minorEm    A minorAm   E minorEm    A minorAm
and now ain't I a woman? (ain't I a woman?)

Verse 4:
   E minorEm         A minorAm
I've borne five children seen most all of them
sold off into slavery
  E minorEm           A minorAm
and when I cried out with a mother's grief
E minorEm       A minorAm
none but Jesus heard me
E minorEm       A minorAm
none but Jesus heard me
  E minorEm    A minorAm   E minorEm    A minorAm
and ain't I a woman? (ain't I a woman?)

Verse 5:
E minorEm
And that man says
   A minorAm
that women can't have as much rights as a man
E minorEm          A minorAm
cause Christ wasn't a woman
E minorEm          A minorAm
cause Christ wasn't a woman
E minorEm       A minorAm     E minorEm
where did your Christ come from?
E minorEm       A minorAm     E minorEm
where did your Christ come from?
   E minorEm    A minorAm
from God and a woman
   E minorEm    A minorAm
from God and a woman
E minorEm
