Growing Sideways(Chords)

	        G                        Bm  
So I took my medication and I poured my trauma out 
         C  
On some sad-eyed middle aged man's overpriced new leather couch 
        Em                          G  
And we argued about Jesus, finally found some middle ground 
           C 
I said, 'I'm cured' 

       G                        Bm 
And I divvied up my anger into thirty separate parts 
          C 
Keep the bad shit in my liver and the rest around my heart 
          Em                             G 
I'm still angry at my parents for what their parents did to them 
             C 
But it's a start 

               Em                 G 
But I ignore things, and I move sideways 
             C                         G 
Until I forget what I felt in the first place 
                   C                    G 
At the end of the day I know there are worse ways 
               D  D4  D 
To stay alive 

                   Em                     G 
'Cause everyone's growing and everyone's healthy 
            C                             G 
I'm terrified that I might never have met me 
           C                        G 
Oh, if my engine works perfect on empty 
               D 
I guess I'll drive 
               G 
I guess I'll drive 

         G                       Bm 
So I forgot my medication, fell into a manic high 
         C                           C  
Spent my savings at a Lulu, now I'm suffering in style 
       Em                                      G 
Why's pain so damn impatient? Ain't like it's got a place to be 
       C 
Keeps rushing me 

              Em                 G 
But I ignore things, and I move sideways 
              C                        G 
Until I forget what I felt in the first place 
                   C                    G 
At the end of the day I know there are worse ways 
               D  D4  D 
To stay alive 

                   Em                     G 
'Cause everyone's growing and everyone's healthy 
           C                             G 
I'm terrified that I might never have met me 
           C                        G 
Oh, if my engine works perfect on empty 
               D    D4  
I guess I'll drive 

        C                 G 
And if all my life was wasted 
         Em                   D 
I don't mind, I'll watch it go 
             C              G 
Yeah, it's better to die numb 
                 D   D4  D 
Than feel it all 

        C                 G 
Oh, if all my time was wasted 
         Em                   D 
I don't mind, I'll watch it go 
             C              G 
Yeah, it's better to die numb 
                 D   D4  D 
Than feel it all 

              Em                 G  
But I ignore things, and I move sideways 
             C                          G  
Until I forget what I felt in the first place 
                   C                   G  
At the end of the day lord there are worse ways 
               D   D4  
To stay alive 

                   Em                     G 
'Cause everyone's growing and everyone's healthy 
           C                              G 
I'm terrified that I might never have met me 
          C                         G 
Oh, if my engine works perfect on empty 
               D 
I guess I'll drive 
               G  
I guess I'll drive
