Intro (x2): B Dbm Verse 1: B Dbm I was too young to see the truth B Dbm In my grandma's lap, I'm drowning in her perfume B Dbm Too naive to even care B Dbm 'Bout the words she whispered while she brushed out my hair Pre-chorus: B People gonna say Dbm If you need a break, someone'll take your place B People gonna try Dbm To tell you that you're fine with dollars in their eyes (Just remember) Chorus: B Dbm B Don't let them xxxx you, honey, no, oh B Dbm Don't let them try (Ooh) B Dbm Don't let them hurt you, baby B Dbm Just say, "Recess, I'm tired" Verse 2: B Dbm Sittin' in my room, looking at all I've done B Dbm Everything I wanted has come to fruition B Dbm I should be happy but I can't get out my bed B Dbm Stressin' 'bout the voices screamin' inside my head Pre-chorus: B People gonna say Dbm If you need a break, someone'll take your place B People gonna try Dbm To tell you that you're fine with dollars in their eyes (Just remember) Chorus: B Dbm B Don't let them xxxx you, honey, no, oh B Dbm Don't let them try (Ooh) B Dbm Don't let them hurt you, baby B Dbm Just say "recess, I'm tired" Bridge: Abm Where is my time? Abm Gone in my mind E Gone, I can't find E Euphoria Abm When I get upset Abm I think in my head Gb back to what she said Pre-chorus: B People gonna say Dbm If you need a break, someone'll take your place B People gonna try Dbm To tell you that you're fine with dollars in their eyes (Just remember) Chorus: B Dbm B Don't let them xxxx you, honey, no, oh B Dbm Don't let them try (Ooh) B Dbm Don't let them hurt you, baby B Dbm Just say "recess," I'm tired This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.

this is the plucking c:
I think +1 is the real version cause you can do a picking that sounds juste like the real song, not pitch or whatever. It easy you just:
Pluck the string in that order:(open chord) C EE G EE x2 (string 2 33 1 33 2) than do a Dm plucking in the same order. (D FF A FF D FF A) but to bring it back to C, you do : (D FF A FF D FF A) G (back to C EE G EE. That pretty much the whole song except the bridge

the plucking c:
-4 is really good ,
1st verses is slowly down strumming
Next all is ddu-udu
does anyone knows the strumming pattern
+1 is very easy for beginners.
Does anyone know how to do the bridge for +1? I have the plucking for everything else down but I can’t figure that one bit out.
If you transpose +1 and capo on 1st fret it makes it a little easier!
If anyone wants a strumming pattern instead of plucking, I recommend DDU D 🙂
