You Don't Own Me

[Gm]                          [2X]
        / / /  / / /  / / /  / / /

        [Gm]You don't [Cm]own me [D7]   I'm not just [Cm]one of your [D7]   many t[Gm]oys
        [Gm]You don't [Cm]own me [D7]   don't say I c[Cm]an't go with [D7]   other b[G]oys

        And d[G]on't tell me what to do
        And d[Em]on't tell me what to say
        And pl[C]ease, when I go out with you
        D[D7]on't put me on display [1: 'cause]

        You don't own me, don't try to change me in any way
        You don't own me, don't tie me down 'cause I'd never stay

        Oh, I don't tell you what to say
        I don't tell you what to do
        So just let me be myself
        That's all I ask of you

        [key change to Ab]

        I'm y[Ab]oung and I love to be young
        I'm f[Fm]ree and I love to be free
        To l[C#]ive my life the way I want
        To [Eb7]say and do whatever I please

[repeat chorus 1, in Ab]

        And d[Ab]on't tell me what to do
        And d[Fm]on't tell me what to say
        And pl[C#]ease, when I go out with you
        D[Eb7]on't put me on display [1: 'cause]

[repeat chorus 2, in A]

        I do[A]n't tell you what to say
        I d[F#m]on't tell you what to do
        So j[D]ust let me be myself
        T[E7]hat's all I ask of you

[repeat chorus 3, in Bb:]

        I'm y[Bb]oung and I love to be young
        I'm f[Gm]ree and I love to be free [fade]
