Growing Sideways chords
Start Jamming...
So [G] I took my medication [Bm] and I poured my trauma out
[C] On some sad-eyed middle [N]-aged man's overpriced new leather couch
[Em] And we argued about Jesus
[G] Finally found some middle ground, [C] set on cure
[G] And I divvied up my anger [Bm] into thirty separate parts
[C] Keep the bad in my liver and the rest around my heart
[Em] I'm still angry at my parents [G] for what their parents did to them
But [C] it's a start
[Em] But I ignore things and I [G] move sideways
Until I [C] forget what I felt in [G] the first place
At the end of [C] the day I know [G] there are worse ways
To stay [D] alive
Cause everyone [Em] is growing and everyone [G] is healthy
I'm [C] terrified that I might never [G] have met me
Oh, if [C] my engine works perfect [G] on empty
I guess [D] I'll try, I guess [G] I'll try
So I forgot my medication, [Bm] fell into a manic high
[C] Spent my savings at a Lulu
Now I'm suffering in [D] [Em] stylized pain
So damn impatient, [G] ain't like it's got a place to be
[C] Keeps crushing me
[F#]
But I [Em] ignore things and I [G] move sideways
Until I [C] forget what I [G] felt in the first place
At the end of [C] the day I know [G] there are worse ways
To stay [D] alive
Cause everyone [Em] is growing and everyone [G] is healthy
[C] I'm terrified that I might never [G] have met me
Oh, if [C] my engine works [G] perfect on empty
I guess [D] I'll try
And [C] if all my life [G] was wasted
[Dm] I [Em] don't mind, I'll watch [D] it go
Yeah, [C] it's better to [G] die numb than feel at [D] home
Oh, [C] if all my time [G] was wasted
[Em] I don't mind, I'll watch [D] it go
Yeah, [C] it's better to [G] die numb than feel at [D] home
But I [Em] ignore things and I [G] move sideways
[F#m] Until I [C] forget what I felt [G] in the first place
At the end [C] of the day Lord knows [G] there are worse ways
To stay [D] alive
Cause [Em] everyone is growing [G] and everyone is healthy
I'm [C] terrified that I might never [G] have met me
Oh, if [C] my engine works [G] perfect on empty
I guess [D] I'll try
I guess [G] I'll try
