Lyrics

Tryin’ to de cide, tryin’ to de cide if I real ly want to go out to night.

I nev er used to go out with out you, not I sure I re mem ber how to.

Gon na be late, gon na be late but I’m all my girls ly gon’ have to wait ’cause I don’t n’t know ven if I like my out fit, I tried ev ’ry thing in the clos et.

(G)Noth ing feels right when I’m not with you, (D)sick of this dress and these Jim my Choo’s.

(C)Tak ing them off ’cause I feel a fool (D)tryin’ to dress up when I’m miss ing you.

(G)I’m a step out of this lin ge rie, (D)curl up in a ball with some thing Hanes.

In bed I lay

with noth ing but your (G)t shirt on,

with noth ing but your (C)t shirt on,

hey.

Got to be strong, got to be strong but I’m real ly hurt ing now that you’re gone.

I thought er may be I’d do some shop ping, but I could n’t get past the door.

And now I don’t know, now I don’t know if I’m ev er real ly gon’ let you go.

And I could n’t e ven leave I my a part ment.

I Stripped down, ’ry torn up a bout it.

(G)Noth ing feels right when I’m not with you, (D)sick of this dress and these Jim my Choo’s.

(C)Tak ing them off ’cause I feel a fool (D)tryin’ to dress up when I’m miss ing you.

(G)I’m a step out of this lin ge rie, (D)curl up in a ball with some thing Hanes.

In bed I lay

with noth ing but your (G)t shirt on,

with noth ing but your (C)t shirt on,

hey.

with noth ing but your (G)t shirt on,

with noth ing but your (C)t shirt on,

oh.

Tryin’ to de cide, tryin’ to de cide if I real ly wan na go back to night.

I could n’t e ven leave my a part ment.

I’m stripped down, torn up a bout it.

(G)Noth ing feels right when I’m not with you, (D)sick of this dress and these Jim my Choo’s.

(C)Tak ing them off ’cause I feel a fool (D)tryin’ to dress up when I’m miss ing you.

(G)I’m a step out of this lin ge rie, (D)curl up in a ball with some thing Hanes.

In bed I lay.

(G)Noth ing feels right when I’m not with you, (D)sick of this dress and these Jim my Choo’s.

(C)Tak ing them off ’cause I feel a fool (D)tryin’ to dress up when I’m miss ing you.

(G)I’m a step out of this lin ge rie, (D)curl up in a ball with some thing Hanes.

In bed I lay.

With noth ing but your (G)t shirt on,

T-shirt by Shontelle — Easy Piano for Kids

This page shows “T-shirt by Shontelle in our color-coded kid songbook view — every note is colored by pitch (red C, orange D, yellow E, green F, blue G, purple A, pink B) and the lyrics sit directly under each note, so children can sing along while they play. The song is in the key of G at 88 BPM, a medium-difficulty arrangement — try slowing the tempo down using the BPM control.

Tips for parents & teachers

  • Start at 50% tempo using the BPM control. Speed up only when your child can play through without stopping.
  • Turn on the metronome from the top bar to build steady rhythm.
  • Use the segmented OFF / C / 1 button to toggle note labels on the staff and keys — kids learn note names faster with letters showing.
  • Tap a measure number on the timeline to jump to a specific section for repeat practice.
