CHORDS: Noah Kahan – Growing Sideways Chords on Piano & Ukulele

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
