[B]
[C#m] [B]
[C#m] [B]
I was too young to see [E] the [C#m] truth.
[B]
I'm [G#m] a slut, I'm [D#m] drowning [C#m] in her perfume.
[B]
Too naive to [C#m] even care.
[B]
Words she whispered [G#m] while [C#m] she brushed out my hair.
[B] People gonna say,
If you need [C#m] a break, someone will take your place.
[B] People gonna try,
To tell you that [C#] you're fine, with dollars in their eyes.
Just [B] remember,
Don't let them [C#m] fuck you, honey.
[B] No, don't let [G#m] them [C#m] try.
[B]
Don't let [G#m] them [C#m] hurt you, baby.
[G#m] Just [B] say,
Recess one [C#m] time.
[B]
Sitting in my room,
Looking [E] at all I've done,
[B]
[G#m] Has [E] come to fruition.
[C#m] [B]
I should be happy,
But I can't [C#m] get out my bed.
[B]
Stressing out, the voices screaming [C#m] inside my [B] head.
People gonna say,
If you need [C#m] a break, someone will take your place.
[B] People gonna try,
To tell you that [C#m] you're fine, with dollars in their eyes.
Just [B] remember,
Don't let [G#m] them [C#m] fuck you, honey.
[B] No, don't let [G#m] them [C#m] try.
[B]
Don't let [G#m]
[C#m] them hurt you, baby.
[G#m] Just [B] say,
Recess one [C#m] time.
[F#] [G#m]
Where is my time gone in my mind?
[E] All night can't find, you for you.
And I [G#m] get upset, I think in my head, [F#] like you wish you said.
People [G#m] gonna say,
If you need [E] a break, someone will take your place.
[B] People gonna try,
To tell you that [E] you're fine, with dollars in [B] their eyes.
Just remember,
Don't let them [C#m] fuck you, honey.
[B] No, don't let [G#m] them [C#m] try.
[B]
Don't let [G#m] them [C#m] hurt you, baby.
[B] Just say,
Recess one [C#m] time.
