 Em
Turn the light on
            C
And you're gonna see someone
       G                     D
Who's gonna be somebody someday
   Em
Invisible lines
         C
All the cynical minds
         G                              D
Think I don't know what to think or to say

 Em
Hold me
     C
But don't you hold me down
 G
Change is gonna come
        D
But my patience running out
            Em
Made the decision
                       C
What the dictionary's missing

Is my definition
 G                          D
I'm not just a four-letter word

Chorus:
 C              G
I'm not just a girl
Oh just a girl
 C              G
I'm not just a girl
Oh just a girl
   Em
I pack my suitcases
 C
I'm going places
Bm                  C
I'm gonna rule the world
 C              G
I'm not just a girl
 C              G  D  G
I'm not just a girl

C     G
Do do do do
C     G
Do do do do do do
C     G
Do do do do
D     G
Do do do

We're sittin' in the kitchen
And we're talkin' our non-fiction
And the truth is comin' out tonight
Is that what you expected?
That I would just accept it?
To stand behind and not beside?

Hold me, but don't you hold me down
Change is gonna come
But my patience running out
Made a decision
What the dictionary's
Missing is my definition
I'm not just a four letter word

Chorus:
I'm not just a girl
Just a girl
I'm not just a girl
Just a girl
I pack my suitcases
I'm going places
I'm gonna rule the world
I'm not just a girl
I'm not just a girl

      Am
Gonna put it on
     Em
And wear it out
 D                    C
Dress it up with attitude
     Am
I'm looking fine
     Em
The night is mine
D
I don't know about you

Chorus:
I'm not just a girl
Just a girl
I'm not just a girl
Just a girl
I pack my suitcases
I'm going places
I'm gonna rule the world
I'm not just a girl
I'm not just a girl

Oh, just a girl
I'm not just a girl
Just a girl
I'm not just a girl
