Recess
Tuning: E A D G B E
[Intro]
B C#m
B C#m
[Verse 1]
B C#m
I was too young to see the truth
B C#m
In my grandma''s lap, I''m drowning in her perfume
B C#m
Too naive to even care
B C#m
''Bout the words she whispered while she brushed out my hair
[Pre-Chorus]
B
People gonna say
C#m
If you need a break, someone''ll take your place
B
People gonna try
C#m
To tell you that you''re fine with dollars in their eyes (Just remember)
[Chorus]
B C#m B
Don''t let them fuck you, honey, no, oh
B C#m
Don''t let them try (Ooh)
B C#m
Don''t let them hurt you, baby
B C#m
Just say, "Recess, I''m tired"
[Verse 2]
B C#m
Sittin'' in my room, looking at all I''ve done
B C#m
Everything I wanted has come to fruition
B C#m
I should be happy but I can''t get out my bed
B C#m
Stressin'' ''bout the voices screamin'' inside my head
[Pre-Chorus]
B
People gonna say
C#m
If you need a break, someone''ll take your place
B
People gonna try
C#m
To tell you that you''re fine with dollars in their eyes (Just remember)
[Chorus]
B C#m B
Don''t let them fuck you, honey, no, oh
B C#m
Don''t let them try (Ooh)
B C#m
Don''t let them hurt you, baby
B C#m
Just say "recess, I''m tired"
[Bridge]
G#m
Where is my time?
G#m
Gone in my mind
E
Gone, I can''t find
E
Euphoria
G#m
When I get upset
G#m
I think in my head
F#
back to what she said
[Pre-Chorus]
B
People gonna say
C#m
If you need a break, someone''ll take your place
B
People gonna try
C#m
To tell you that you''re fine with dollars in their eyes (Just remember)
[Chorus]
B C#m B
Don''t let them fuck you, honey, no, oh
B C#m
Don''t let them try (Ooh)
B C#m
Don''t let them hurt you, baby
B C#m
Just say "recess," I''m tired
