G Bm So I took my medication and I poured my trauma out C On some sad-eyed middle aged man's over-priced new leather couch Em G And we argued about Jesus finally found some middle ground C I said I'm cured And I divvied up my anger into thirty separate parts Keep the bad shit in my liver, and the rest around my heart I'm still angry at my parents, for what their parents did to them But it's a start Em G But I ignore things and I move sideways C G 'Till I forget what I felt in the first place C At the end of the day G D I know there are worse ways to stay alive Chorus: Em 'Cause everyone's growing G 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 So I forgot my medication Fell into a manic high Spent my savings at a Lulu Now I'm suffering in style Why is pain so damn impatient? Ain't like it's got a place to be Keeps rushing me But I ignore things, and I move sideways 'Til I forget what I felt in the first place At the end of the day I know there are worse ways to stay alive Chorus: 'Cause everyone's growing And everyone's healthy I'm terrified that I might never have met me Oh, if my engine works perfect on empty 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 D It's better to die numb than feel at all C G Oh if all my time was wasted Em D I don't mind I'll watch it go C G D It's better to die numb than feel at all But I ignore things, and I move sideways Until I forget what I felt in the first place At the end of the day lord knows there are worse ways to stay alive Chorus: 'Cause everyone's growing And everyone's healthy I'm terrified that I might never have met me Oh, if my engine works perfect on empty I guess I'll drive I guess I'll drive You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsC D Em G Bm Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
