Backstory:

Thoughtful Girls is an all-female indie pop band created in the heart of London, England in 2012. The band consists of four members: lead vocalist and keyboardist, Ellie; guitarist, Megan; bassist, Hannah; and drummer, Lucy. They were all high school friends who shared a common love for music, philosophy, and the arts.

They draw inspiration from their own lives, and the world around them, to create music that inspires and motivates.

Title:

“Riding the Metro”

Full song lyrics:

(Verse 1)
[Am] Waking up early, [D] the city still sleeps, [G] under the moonlight, [C] our secrets we keep
[Am] Riding the metro, [D] lost in the crowd, [G] voices are silent, [C] but our hearts are loud

(Chorus)
[F] We are the thoughtful girls, [C] taking on the world,
[G] With our dreams in hand, [Am] making a stand
[F] We are the thoughtful girls, [C] breaking down the pearls,
[G] With our song we rise, [Am] reaching the skies

(Verse 2)
[Am] Streetlights are fading, [D] as dawn starts to break, [G] we are the symbols, [C] of the choices we make
[Am] From the pages of history, [D] to the screens of today, [G] we find our power, [C] in what we convey

(Chorus)
[F] We are the thoughtful girls, [C] airing out the whirls,
[G] With our melody, [Am] we set free
[F] We are the thoughtful girls, [C] in a world that twirls,
[G] With our voices strong, [Am] we belong
