Laufey - Letter To My 13 Year Old Self

[Intro]
Bbmaj7 Bb7 Bb6 Adim7/Bb

[Verse 1]
Bbmaj7 Bb7 Bb6 Ebm6/Bb
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/Bb Bbmaj7
You’ll grow up and grow so tough and charm them
Bbmaj7 Bb7 Bb6 Ebm6/Bb Am7b5
Write your story, fall in love a little too
D7b9 G6 G7b9
The things you thought you’d never do, I wish I could go back
Cm7
And give her a squeeze, myself at thirteen
Cm7b5 F7 Bbmaj7 Bb7 Bb6 Adim7/Bb
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/Bb Bbmaj7
You’ll grow up and grow so confident and
Bbmaj7 Bb7 Bb6 Ebm6/Bb Am7b5
Write your story, fall in love a little too
D7b9 G6 G7b9
The things you thought you’d never do, I wish I could go back
Cm7
And give her a squeeze, myself at thirteen
Cm7b5 F7 Bbmaj7 Bb7 Bb6 Adim7/Bb Bbmaj7
And just let her know, know that she’s beautiful, oohhhhhhhhhhhh
