School Day

 

Verse 1:

 

I don’t want to share with you 

Everything we did today

When you left me at school today

 

And I don’t want to talk about 

All the different art projects

That happened at school today

 

I don’t think I’ll tell you about

The incident in the yard

It’s best you don’t know anyway

 

I’ll be keeping to myself the

Numbers and letters I’ve learned

 

Chorus:

G            G7            C    A-    C

Well you may notice there’s paint under my finger nails

    G            G7            C    A-    C

And you may notice all the blue paint in my hair

           B-            A-        C        B-

And if you look around the class room,  you can see the walls painted blue so

E-                    A-    D7    G

What do you think I did at school today?

 

Verse 2:

I don’t think I’ll tell you about 

Why I have this new Bandaid

Or the scrape that’s under it

 

You can keep asking about

All the new kid nicknames

That I got all my friends to say

 

I can’t tell you about 

If I took a nap today

Cause I was sleeping through it anyway

 

I’m hoping that you didn’t see

All the whole in the back yard

 

 

Chorus:

G            G7            C    A-    C

Well you may notice there’s dirt under my finger nails

    G            G7            C    A-    C

And you may notice all the grass stains on my knees

           B-            A-                    C        B-

And if you look around the school yard,  you can see the holes in the grass so

E-                    A-    D7    G

What do you think I did at school today?

 

Brdige:

G                C

So I don’t like to share, but appreciate that you care

G                    C

And if you use your parent eyes, the projects are not in disguise

G                   E-                A-        D

They’re on the walls and in my hair, they’re on my clothes and everywhere

C                        D7

So I’m not gonna say what I did at school today

 

Chorus:

G            G7            C    A-    C

Well you may notice there’s paint under my finger nails

    G            G7            C    A-    C

And you may notice all the blue paint in my hair

           B-            A-        C        B-

And if you look around the class room,  you can see the walls painted blue so

E-                    A-    D7    G

What do you think I did at school today?

Verse 3:

If I don’t tell about 

What I did at school today

It’s just a game that I like to play

 

You don’t have worry about it

When I’ve got a smile on my face

And I can’t wait to go to school

 

And even though I keep my secrets 

Rest assured I’m being safe

I know you’ll worry anyway

 

But don’t stop asking about 

What I did at school today

    D7                G

Cause I’d miss that part of my school day
