Anxiety Ukulele chords by Julia Michaels

Tuning: G C E A (G C E A)

I like to pick the two middle strings for the first verse.


Verse 1:
   C                                  Am
My friends, they wanna take me to the movies
  F                                G
I tell 'em to take off, I'm holding hands with my depression
C                               Am
And right when I think I've overcome it
  F                         G
Anxiety starts kicking in to teach that shit a lesson
C                           Am
Oh I try my best just to be social
F                                      G
I make all these plans with friends and hope they call and cancel
       C                              Am
Then I overthink about the things I’m missing
        F            G
Now I'm wishing I was with 'em

Pre-Chorus 1:
              C                      Am
Feel like I'm always apologizing for feeling
         F                      G
Like I'm out of my mind when I'm doing just fine
       C                             Am
And my exes all say that I'm hard to deal with
        F     G
And I aFit it,  yeah


Chorus 1:
C            Am                      F          G               C
  But all my friends, they don't know  what it's like, what it's like
           Am            F        G                 C
They don't understand why  I can't sleep through the night
                            Am
I've been told that I could take something to fix it
        F                          G
Damn, I wish it, I wish it was that simple, ah-ah
C        Am                      F          G               C
  All my friends, they don't know  what it's like, what it's like


Verse 2:
                           Am
Always wanted to be one of those people in the room
          F                                      G
That says something and everyone puts their hand up
                     C
Like, "If you're sad put your hand up
        Am
If you hate someone, put your hand up
F                                  G
If you're scared, put your hand up"


Pre-Chorus 2:
              C                      Am
Feel like I'm always apologizing for feeling
         F                      G
Like I'm out of my mind when I'm doing just fine
       C                             Am
And my exes all say that I'm hard to deal with
        F     G
And I aFit it,  it's true


Chorus 2:
C            Am                      F          G               C
  But all my friends, they don't know  what it's like, what it's like
           Am            F        G                 C
They don't understand why  I can't sleep through the night
                            Am
I've been told that I could take something to fix it
        F                          G
Damn, I wish it, I wish it was that simple, ah-ay
C        Am                      F          G               C
  All my friends, they don't know  what it's like, what it's like


Bridge:
C                         Am
I got all these thoughts, running through my mind
F                    G
All the damn time and I can't seem to shut it off
  C                   Am
I think I'm doing fine  most of the time
  F                          G
I think that I'm alright, but I can't seem to shut it off

C                         Am
I got all these thoughts, running through my mind
F                    G
All the damn time and I can't seem to shut it off
  C                   Am
I think I'm doing fine  most of the time
  F                        G
I say that I'm alright, but I can't seem to shut it off

C   Am         F        G
       Shut it,  shut it,  yeah

           Am            F        G                 C
They don't understand why  I can't sleep through the night
                            Am
I've been told that I could take something to fix it
