The Recipe
State Champs Lyrics


Who decided when the words came out?You said I couldn't have these selfish doubts, I know
But I'm thinking it's the fact that I can

Your self destructing from the inside out
Never find a way to talk it out, I know
But I'm thinking it's the fact that I can

But you wouldn't waste away those thoughts I never had
and you wouldn't waste away
Because it's honesty and things you promise me
Always on a list and growing constantlythen I saidI thought our love was just a recipe
Who would've thought that it'd mean everything to me

You know you're beautiful without that dress
If time is fleeting let's embrace this messI knowAnd if that's a fact you won't need it at all

But you wouldn't waste away those thoughts I never had
and you wouldn't waste away

Because it's honesty and things you promise me
Always on a list and growing constantlyThen I saidI thought our love was just a recipe
Who would've thought that it'd mean everythingAnd in the morning light we'll turn the wrongs to right
Rearrange the odds and we can save tonightI thought our love was just a recipeWho would've thought that it'd mean everything to me

I wanna know what it's likeTo barely sleep through the night
And not have a care at allAnd though I know it's been said I've had these doubts in my head
But none that I can recall

Because it's honesty and things you promise me
Always on a list and growing constantlyThen I saidI thought our love was just a recipe
Who would've thought that it'd mean everythingAnd in the morning light we'll turn the wrongs to right
Rearrange the odds and we can save tonightI thought our love was just a recipeWho would've thought that it'd mean everything to me

Ah! I thinks it's something like this:

G C
G/---2---4---4-------------/--0---0---------/
D/---------------------------/------------------/
A/--------------------------/--3---3---------/
E/---3--3----3---------/------------------/

G
Who decided when the words came out?
C
You said I couldn’t have these selfish doubts, I know
G
But I’m thinking it’s the fact that I can
Your self destructing from the inside out (part 1)
C
Never find a way to talk it out, I know
G
But I’m thinking it’s the fact that I can

D C G (bridge 1)
But you wouldn’t waste away those thoughts I never had
D C
and you wouldn’t waste away

G D11/F#
Because it’s honesty and things you promise me
Em C9
Always on a list and growing constantly (chorus)
then I said
G D11/F#
I thought our love was just a recipe
Em C9
Who would’ve thought that it’d mean everything to me

G
You know you’re beautiful without that dress
If time is fleeting let’s embrace this mess
C
I know
G
And if that’s a fact you won’t need it at all

But you wouldn’t waste away those thoughts I never had (same as bridge 1)
and you wouldn’t waste away

Because it’s honesty and things you promise me
Always on a list and growing constantly
Then I said
I thought our love was just a recipe
Who would’ve thought that it’d mean everything (chorus)
And in the morning light we’ll turn the wrongs to right
Rearrange the odds and we can save tonight
I thought our love was just a recipe
Who would’ve thought that it’d mean everything to me

Em D
I wanna know what it’s like
C
To barely sleep through the night
And not have a care at all
Em D
And though I know it’s been said I’ve had these doubts in my head (part 3)
C
But none that I can recall

Because it’s honesty and things you promise me
Always on a list and growing constantly
Then I said
I thought our love was just a recipe (chorus)
Who would’ve thought that it’d mean everything
And in the morning light we’ll turn the wrongs to right
Rearrange the odds and we can save tonight
I thought our love was just a recipe
Who would’ve thought that it’d mean everything to me

Chorus and part 3 is picking, the rest is fingering.
(Sorry, it's kind of messy and I don't think it's just that, but I hope this help everyone)

I think we can all agree that with such a recipe, State Champs are absolute chefs and the music they’ve been cooking up is tasty. 👨‍🍳

Derek’s voice, his vocals, are the recipe. It means everything to me.

good night moon

this is beautiful, derek's voice improved a lot

Jeremiah Fernandez

he's singing lower + some falsetto. it's really nice

bub gamer

"Though I know it's been said Ive had these doubts in my head, but none that I can recall" that line is very subtle, but I think most people that have been in a relationship where they feel insecure can relate to it. I love it

Coolname Surnameson

Patrick R

Any album from the state champs never failed me. Such an awesome band

Juan Cruz Fabi
