Talk To Me Now

(Play this riff all along the song)

C                          Am
he said ani, you've gotten tough
         B/D        C
'cause my tone was curt
                    F
yeah, and when i'm approached in a dark alley
G
i don't lift my skirt
         C
in this city
C
self-preservation
     Am
is a full time occupation
    B/D
i'm determined
      C
to survive on these shores
  F               G
i don't avert my eyes anymore
     C
in a man's world
C       Am
i am a woman by birth
          B/D             C
and after nineteen times around i have found
          F
they will stop at nothing once they
G
know what you are worth

            C  C  Am  B/D  C  F  G
talk to me now

C
i played the powerless
C                 Am
in too many dark scenes
          B/D            C
and i was blessed with a birth and a death
      F                      G
and i guess i just want some say in between
           C
don't you understand
C
in the day to day
       Am
in the face to face
          B/D
i have to act
        C
just as strong as i can
            F
just to preserve a place
            G
where i can be who i am

            C  C  Am  B/D  C  F  G
talk to me now
C                    Am
so if you still know how
       C           Am
you can talk to me now
C                    Am
so if you still know how
       C           Am
you can talk to me now

C                          Am
