Her Story, Not History!
Lyrics and melody written by Tim Janakos, October 1995. Chords finished 2011.


(A Section) Capo 2 Tuned to A=432

(Am) He
Well he (Dm) said,
"She's to be (G) seen not heard."
Who's he to (Am) say?

While (Am) she
Oh she (Dm) bled;
in silence (G) she burned
And he's to (Am) blame

(B section)

With her (C) mother, her daughters
and (G) sisters too,
at the (Dm) hands of the "holy" white
(E7) puritan fools,
(music pause)
Mass (Am) insanity!

(Chorus)

They call it (Am) "history"
(G) because it is his (Am) story
But his story's a (Dm) lie
I want to hear the (Em) truth.
I want to (Dm) know (E7)
Her (Am) Story!

(Section A revisited)

In the 16 hundreds (1600s),
he would bite the hands that feed,
until they bleed.
Her soul devoured

It’s time (oh yeah),
To set her free.
I won't believe that he
has the power.



(Section B revisited)

She's the Mother, the Goddess,
the protector of time.
In the burning years,
he invented the crimes
(music pause)
of humanity.

(Repeat Chorus into bridge)

They call it "history"
because it is his story
But his story's a lie
I want to hear the truth.
I want to know
Her Story!

(Bridge)

In all the (Dm) pain not glory,
she created (Em) life.
Despite the (Dm) tears,
or his (G) ungrounded fears.
In a (FM7) patriarchal (G) age of rage,
her (FM7) soul was quietly (G) kept incaged (E7),
for centu(G)ries(E7).
Still you'll only (G) hear (E7)
his-(Am) story!

(Repeat Chorus)

They call it "history"
because it is his story
But his story's a lie
I want to hear the truth.
I want to know
Her Story!
