Meredith Brooks é uma das muitas compositoras que surgiu depois do sucesso do rock alternativo de Liz Phair e PJ Harvey, embora tenha mais semelhanças com Sheryl Crow e Alanis Morissette.
Meredith nasceu e cresceu no Oregon, descobrindo blues, rhythm ‘n’ blues e classic rock ainda adolescente, quando decidiu aprender a tocar violão. Começou a compor algumas canções, assinando contrato com a Capitol Records em 1997. No mesmo ano, gravou seu primeiro single, “Bitch” – um pop-rock muito semelhante ao som de Morissette.

INTRO AD 2X
A Here we go again D Same old argument BmA You're calling me Miss Pollyanne A You see the world as cruel D And bein mad is cool BmA You think that I don't give a damn
CHORUS DEA You don't have to shout to be heard A Who said dark is deep DEA You'd rather flip the bird A I'd rather show you signs of peace DEF#m Love ain't a dying art EBm As far as I can see D Yeah sentimental me
Intrelude (same chords as verse)
A Fist up in the air D Mine used to be up there BmA You only give yourself away A So paint your roses black and blue D Use the f**k word I can too BmA When I have nothing else to say
DEA You don't have to shout to be heard A Who said dark is deep DEA You'd rather flip the bird
A I'd rather show you signs of peace DEF#m Love ain't a dying art EBm As far as I can see DA Yeah sentimental me DA Yeah sentimental me D Yeah
SOLO (Same chords as verse)
