Jessie Reyez - EMOTIONAL DETACHMENT DEMO

Part 1

[Verse 1]
D A Bm G

D A
Met your new girl at Johnny’s party
Bm G
I had to smile and say, “What up”
D A
Then I ran my ass to the bathroom
Bm G
So I could cry about old love
D A
I came back in with makeup smudged up
Bm G
You caught me wipe it quick low-key
D A
And then you got this weak-ass smile up on your face
Bm G
As if to say you’re sorry, it couldn’t be me

[Chorus]

D A
Wish I could be your friend
Bm G
And not hurt so bad
D A
Wish I could be your friend
Bm G
And not hurt so bad, yeah

[Verse 2]

D A
I search the room looking for solace
Bm G
You know whiskey always helps me
D A
Then we lock eyes when I start pouring
Bm G
Obviously, I’m not doing well
D A
But we can’t talk ’cause it ain’t appropriate
Bm G
And she knows exactly who I am
D A
She pulls you closе and tells you maybe y’all should go
Bm G
And then shе smiles at me, she smiles because she can

[Chorus]

D A
Wish I could be your friend
Bm G
And not hurt so bad
D A
Wish I could be your friend
Bm G D
And not hurt, hurt so bad

[Outro]

A
Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Bm G D
So bad, baby, oh, so bad
A Bm
So bad, so bad, so bad, so bad
G D
So bad, so bad, so bad, so bad, so bad, so bad
A Bm G C
I wish it didn’t hurt so bad, so bad, so bad, so bad, so bad

Part 2

[Intro]

C
You wanna know when you finally get better
Am C
You get better when you finally fucking tired of being sad

[Verse 1]

F
I’m sure that I’m the villain in somebody else’s story
C
But this ain’t their fuckin’ song now, is it?
F
And I’m sure that someone out there thinks that I should say I’m sorry
C
But what they think really ain’t my business
F
And I miss the old me who never gave a shit
C
They say ignorance is bliss and now I get it
F
The years, they gave me wisdom but they gave me headaches too
C
And now I know better than to argue with a fool

[Chorus]

F C
So I stay quiet
F C
I stay quiet

[Verse 2]

F
I heard my old lover still be talkin’ shit about me
C
But that sound like it’s their new boo’s problem
F
And even if they said it to my face, I think I’d smile
C
‘Cause I learned peace of mind is all I wanted
F
Finally growing, cost me quite a bit
C
They say ignorance is bliss and now I get it
F
The years they gave me wisdom but they gave me heartaches too
C
And now I know better than to argue with a fool

[Chorus]

F Fm C
So I stay quiet
F Fm C
I stay quiet
F C
I stay quiet
F C
I stay quiet
