[Intro]
 E   A G E
 
[Verse 1]
G          E                                 A   G E
6 A.M. I'm out of bed, I stumble through the haze
E
Ain't no coffee strong enough to get me through my day
A
One thing to another, there's no time to stop
  E
I hit the ground a runnin' and keep runnin' 'til I drop
    B                                                Bb A
I'm taking care of everyone, oh, my heads in a spin
  A                                                  E
I tried but I just don't remember signing up for this
 
[Verse 2]
E
Before I leave the house, I pack a diaper bag with clothes and snacks
E
Laptop, cell phone, find my keys, feed the dogs before I leave
B                                       Bb
Everybody's needs are my responsibility
   A                                                  E
It sure'd be nice to have somebody taking care of me, yeah
 
[Chorus]
A                  E
Why, why, why, why?
     A                     B
When I'm through with this life
     E
I am gonna have a come to Jesus
              A
You can guarantee
A
When I walk through those pearly gates
                            E
I am gonna have a talk with Eve
A G E
 
[Verse 3]
E                                                 G   A G
There's so many things that I can't begin to understand
E
The differences that are between a woman and a man
    A
See woman they do twice the work and get half the pay
E
Men they climb the ladder while the women pave the way
     B                                              B Bb
They say we are the weaker sex, I'd have to disagree
    A
I'd walk a mile in his shoes if he'd walk 
  B      Bb  A Ab G Gb E
a half a mile in these
 
[Chorus]
A                  E
Why, why, why, why?
     A                     B
When I'm through with this life
     E
I am gonna have a come to Jesus
E
You can guarantee
E
When I walk through those pearly gates
                            A  E A G
I am gonna have a talk with Eve
 
[Bridge]
E
Botox, peels, exfoliate, we have the babies, lose the weight
E
Laundry, dishes, up all night, I try my best to get it right
E
Husband, kids, work all day, I got PMS and PTA
E
Find the thing my kid can't find, I need a drink but there's no time
B                               Bb
So many things I have on my list
A
No wonder why at times
A                              E
Oh I can seem like such a witch
 
[Chorus]
A                  E
Why, why, why, why?
     A                     B
When I'm through with this life
     E
I am gonna have a come to Jesus
G
You can guarantee
E           G
When I walk through those pearly gates
E
I am gonna have a talk with Eve
 
[Outro]
