Intro: Bbmaj7 Bb7 Bb6 Adim7  

Verse 1:
Bbmaj7      Bb7               Bb6       Ebm6  
  Don't you worry 'bout your curly hair
Bbmaj7         Bb7                 Ebmaj7    Ebm6
  Clothes that don't quite fit you anywhere
Cm7      F7          Bbmaj7       Ebmaj7               Cm7
  Voices echo in the gym, another girl's had her first kiss
              F7               Bbmaj7  Cm7 F7
Please don't think too much of it,     darling

Verse 2:
Bbmaj7    Bb7            Bb6           Ebm6
  I'm so sorry that they pick you last
Bbmaj7    Bb7             Ebmaj7         Ebm6
  Try to say your foreign name and laugh
Cm7  F7                Bbmaj7   Ebmaj7              Cm7
  I know that you feel loud, so different from the crowd
   F7                 Bbmaj7                Bb7
Of big blue eyes, and long blonde hair, and boys that stare
     Cm7    F7
But, baby, know that

Chorus:
Bbmaj7      Bb7   Bb6        Ebm6             Bbmaj7
  You'll grow up and grow so tough and charm them
Bbmaj7 Bb7     Bb6        Ebm6           Am7  
Write your story, fall in love a little too
     D7                            G6    G7  
The things you thought you'd never do, I wish I could go back
    Cm7
And give her a squeeze, myself at thirteen
    Cm7                 F7               Bbmaj7 Bb7 Bb6 Adim7  
And just let her know, know that she's beautiful,   mmmmmm

Verse 3:
Bbmaj7     Bb7             Bb6        Ebm6
   Keep on going with your silly dream
Bbmaj7     Bb7           Bb6        Ebm6
   Life is prettier than it may seem
Cm7         F7              Bbmaj7        Ebmaj7                  Cm7
   One day, you'll be up on stage, little girls will scream your name
     F7               Bbmaj7             Bb7
The days of tears and failure fears, and no one cares
     Cm7      F7
Will all make sense, 'cause

Chorus:
Bbmaj7      Bb7   Bb6        Ebm6      Bbmaj7
  You'll grow up and grow so confident and
Bbmaj7 Bb7     Bb6        Ebm6           Am7  
Write your story, fall in love a little too
     D7                            G6    G7  
The things you thought you'd never do, I wish I could go back
    Cm7
And give her a squeeze, myself at thirteen
    Cm7                 F7               Bbmaj7 Bb7 Bb6 Adim7    Bbmaj7
And just let her know, know that she's beautiful,   oohhhhhhhhhhhh

Biography

Laufey (pronounced lāy-vāy) is an LA-based singer, composer, producer, and multi-instrumentalist whose transportative jazz songs about young love and self-discovery are filled with wonder and wanderlust. The Icelandic Chinese artist grew up playing cello and piano, inspired by her violinist mother, and became hooked on the jazz standards of Ella Fitzgerald after digging through her father’s records.
