Intro: G Bm

Verse 1:
G                                   D
Okay, I can see it now it's all the same thing

Just different wrapping around it
F                                     C
No need to soften your words, they're still gonna hurt
   Cm
So don't pull punches
G
I tried to be everything you'd ever want
    D
And sometimes I even stood on my heart and stomped
F                          C
Now I'm finally alone and dressed for the show
Cm             Em
But going nowhere
                   C      Cm
They don't need to see me crying

Chorus:
G                                 Bm  
I'll get my little black dress on
                            Em
And if I put on my favorite song
                                 C
I'm gonna dance until you're all gone
            Cm                    G
I'll get my little black dress on

Verse 2:
G                                             D
You came, lifted me up but then you dropped a hurricane
                             F
Now I'm fighting to find the ground again, to steady my feet
    C                   Cm
Get up off my knees and just remember
     G
That I am more than just somebody's puppet
D
I can find the cord and then I'll cut it
F                               C                   Cm
I stand a pretty good chance to dust myself off and dance

Chorus 2:
G                                 Bm  
I'll get my little black dress on
                            Em
And if I put on my favorite song
                                 C
I'm gonna dance until you're all gone
            Cm                  G
I'll get my little black dress on
                             Bm  
I got my little black dress on
                                        Em
And if I tell myself that nothing's wrong
                               Cm
This doesn't have to be a sad song
                                  Em
Not with my little black dress on

Bridge:
 Em                       C                                 G
It's time to connect the dots and draw a different picture up
                              D                    Em
And paint it with the colors of everything I ever was
                            C                              G 
Return to the scene of the crime, the day I let the music die
                        D
And rewrite the final lines cause this time I

Chorus 2:
G                               Bm  
I'll get my little black dress on
                              Em
And if I put on my favorite song
                                  Cm
I'm gonna dance until you're all gone
                                G
I'll get my little black dress on
                             Bm  
I got my little black dress on
                                      Em
And if I tell myself that nothing's wrong
                                Cm
This doesn't have to be a sad song

Not with my little black dress on
