Glass Ceilings

G C Am D
From the moment you’re born, little girl, you will hear “you’re so pretty”, “you’re so precious”, “Aren’t you a darling.”
From the moment you’re born, little girl, made to think: A prince will come save me, forever be happy, just like the movies.

C D. G drop down Em
I know, you don’t need a knights shining armor.
C D
It’s true that you might need to work harder to prove that you are just as strong
G drop. Em C D G/C/Am/D
and you can get along without glass slippers- breaking glass ceilings.

Glass ceiling, glass ceilings
breaking glass ceilings- Glass ceilings, glass ceilings

From the moment you’re born little girl, you should be told “you’re so clever”, “you’re so inventive”, aren’t you expressive.”
From the moment you’re born little girl you should be told “I love what you’re up to”, “I know you can do it”, “You are a brave one!”

I know, you don’t need a knights shining armor.
It’s true that you might need to work harder to prove that you are just as strong and you can get along without glass slippers- breaking glass ceilings.

Em C. G D
It doesn’t matter what you’re wearing or what you look like
Em C G D
Show them the power and belief you feel on the inside and we’ll break glass
Em/C/G/D 2x
ceilings. Breaking glass ceilings.

G/C/Am/D
Glass ceilings, glass ceilings
breaking glass ceilings- Glass ceilings, glass ceilings
