These are Growing Sideways chords by Noah Kahan on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard.
[Verse 1]
G
So I took my medication and
Bm
I poured my trauma out
C
On some sad-eyed middle aged man\'s
over-priced new leather couch
Em
And we argued about Jesus finally
G
found some middle ground
C
I said I\'m cured
[Verse 2]
G
And I\'ve divvied up my anger into
Bm
thirty separate parts
C
Keep the bad shit in my liver
and the rest around my heart
Em
And I\'m still angry at my parents
G
for what their parents did to them
C
But it\'s a start
[Pre-Chorus]
Em
But I ignore things and
G
I move sideways
C
\'Till I forget what I felt
G
in the first place
C
At the end of the day I know
G D
there are worse ways to stay alive
[Chorus]
Em
\'Cause everyone\'s growing
G
And everyone\'s healthy
C
I\'m terrified that I might
G
never have met me
C
Oh, if my engine works
G
perfect on empty
D
I guess I\'ll drive
G
I guess I\'ll drive
[Verse 3]
G
So I forgot my medication
Bm
Fell into a manic high
C
Spent my savings at a Lulu
Now I\'m suffering in style
Em
Why is pain so damn impatient
G
Ain\'t like it\'s got a place to be
C
Keeps rushing me
[Pre-Chorus]
Em G
But I ignore things and I move sideways
C
\'Till I forget what I felt
G
in the first place
C
At the end of the day I know there
G D
are worse ways to stay alive
[Chorus]
Em
\'Cause everyone\'s growing
G
And everyone\'s healthy
C
I\'m terrified that I might
G
never have met me
C
Oh, if my engine works
G
perfect on empty
D
I guess I\'ll drive
G
I guess I\'ll drive
[Bridge]
C G
And if all my life was wasted
Em D
I don\'t mind I\'ll watch it go
C G
It\'s better to die numb
D
than feel at all
C G
Oh if all my life was wasted
Em D
I don\'t mind I\'ll watch it go
C G
It\'s better to die numb than
D
feel at all
[Pre-Chorus]
Em
So I ignore things and
G
I move sideways
C
\'Till I forget what
G
I felt in the first place
C
At the end of the day I know
G D
there are worse ways to stay alive
[Chorus]
Em
\'Cause everyone\'s growing
G
And everyone\'s healthy
C
I\'m terrified that I might
G
never have met me
C
Oh, if my engine works
G
perfect on empty
D
I guess I\'ll drive
G
I guess I\'ll drive
