No Pain No Gain Lyrics By Betty Wright Chords

[Bb] _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ [Dm] Ooh, _ [Cm] _ [Eb] _ _
[Bb] my baby and I are [F] back together again.
[Eb] Loving is better than this hell for pain.
[Bb] If it weren't for the [F] trials we've been [Dm] through,
[Eb] I'd never have the courage to come back to you.
[Bb] We're all entitled [F] to make a mistake.
[Eb] We've got to prepare some heartbreak.
[Bb] I was earning my man while [Dm] I was learning my name.
[Eb] Something you young girls might not understand.
[F] No pain, no pain, no pain, [Bb] no pain, no gain, [Eb] no gain.
No [Bb] pain, no pain, [F] no pain, no pain, [Eb] no gain, no gain. _
[Bb] _ Lady [F] sitting under a tree,
[Eb] she called me over and she said to me,
[Bb] my days left here [F] may not be long.
[Eb] I wouldn't waste my time telling you nothing wrong.
[Bb] But love is a flower that [F] needs a sun and the rain.
[Eb] A little bit of pleasure's worth a whole [Bb] lot of pain.
If you learn the [Dm] secret, how to forgive,
[Eb] a longer and a better life [Bb] you'll live.
No pain, no pain, [F] no pain, no pain, [Eb] no gain, no gain. _
[Bb] No pain, no pain, [Dm] no pain, no pain, [Cm] no gain, [Eb] no gain. _
_ [Bb] Anything [F] worth having at all
[Eb] is worth working for and waiting for.
Some of my [Bb] closest friends
have thought they had [F] that thing on strange
[Eb] just because that man was bringing them flowers
and candy and all [Bb] kinds of gifts.
_ [Dm] Some gifts are [Eb] just to make you feel better
while he's on his guilt trip [Bb] about the night before.
[Dm] You know what I mean.
[Eb] Especially when you know you haven't been doing
[Bb] the things you should do.
Think about it, [F] what is the man trying [Eb] to tell you?
Sometimes flowers mean maybe we should [Bb] just be friends.
Do you get my [F] drift?
Hang if you can [Eb] hang, no pain, no gain.
In [Gm] order to get [F] something, you [Bb] gotta give [Eb] something.
In order to be [D] something, you [Cm] gotta go through [Bb] something.
Be a cook [Abm] in the kitchen, a lady.
[Bb] You can't show your teeth to every guy you meet.
[F] It's all right to be a little sweet,
[Bb] but be a mama with the kids and do the work.
No pain, [Dm] no gain.
[Eb] _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ [Eb] _ See [Bb] you can't give [Dm] up as times get [Eb] hard.
It's just that old devil trying to keep us apart.
[Gm] Say devil, you [Dm] ain't got nothing here.
[Eb] I'm holding to my man.
_ [Bb] No [F] pain, no [Eb] gain. _
No [Bb] pain, [F] _ [Eb] no gain. _ _
[Bb] No pain, [F] no gain.
_ [Eb] _ _
No pain, [Bb] _ _ [F] _ [Eb] no gain. _
[Bb] No pain, no [Dm] gain.
No [Eb] _ _ _
_ [Bb] pain, [Dm] _ _ [Eb] no gain.
In [Bb] order to get [Dm] something, give [Eb] something.
To be something, you [Gm] gotta go through [F] something.
No pain, no [Bb] gain.
[Eb] No pain, no gain.
No [Gm] pain, [Dm] no [Eb] gain.
No pain, [Bb] _ _ [F] _ _ [Cm] no gain.
No, [Bb] _ no pain, [Dm] no pain.
[Eb] _ _ _
_ [Bb] Nothing, [Dm] _ _ [Gm] nothing.
[Eb] _
[Bb] No pain, no gain.
[F] _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ [F] _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ [F] _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ [F] _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ [Dm] _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ [F] _ _ [Eb] _ _
[Bb] No pain, _ [Dm] _ _ _ no pain, no pain, no pain, no pain
