Verse:
           Am                  G                              F
Iʼve spent my life wonderinʼ whatʼs wrong with me
                 Am                    G                         F
Why is my chest so tight and I find it hard to sleep?
                                C               G
Tried to run from the feeling but I know
                       Am          F
Itʼs no way of dealing, and so
           C                    G              F
Iʼve learned to live with my anxieties

Chorus:
                                       C
ʼCause Iʼve got some bad emotions
                                                                G
Itʼs just a part of life, it doesnʼt mean Iʼm broken
At the worst of times, I tell myself to
Am                                             G                    F
Breathe, count to three, wait and see that Iʼll be okay

                                       C
ʼCause Iʼve got some bad emotions
                                                             G
Took a minute, but Iʼm finding ways of coping
When Iʼm on the edge, I know I gotta
F                         G                Am         C           F
Breathe, count to three, and Iʼll be in a better place
Fm
Itʼs just some bad emotions

Post-chorus:
C G Am

Verse:
    Am                           G                F
My parents didnʼt raise me to give in (Give in, give in)
        Am                       G                F
So Iʼll never let the bad emotions win (Let ʼem win, let ʼem win)
                                  C
The worldʼll keep on spinninʼ
      G                                         Am
And I know tomorrow Iʼll feel different
                     F
Thatʼs how it goes (How it goes)
           C                      G                    F
So I tell myself would I rather sink or swim?

Chorus:
                                       C
ʼCause Iʼve got some bad emotions
                                                                G
Itʼs just a part of life, it doesnʼt mean Iʼm broken
At the worst of times, I tell myself to
Am                                             G                    F
Breathe, count to three, wait and see that Iʼll be okay

                                       C
ʼCause Iʼve got some bad emotions
                                                             G
Took a minute, but Iʼm finding ways of coping
When Iʼm on the edge, I know I gotta
F                         G                Am         C           F
Breathe, count to three, and Iʼll be in a better place
Fm
Itʼs just some bad emotions

Outro:
               C                         G
ʼCause I know that Iʼll get better
            Am                 F
Iʼll come out the other side
              C                       G
Itʼs not always rainy weather
            Am                 F
So Iʼd rather keep in mind
                                    C G Am  C G F Fm
Itʼs just some bad emotions
