Serotonin

Cm Ab Eb G


[Verse 1]
      Cm                                    Ab
Some days feel like they are a-lost before getting out of bed
   Eb                             G
A shame spiral that devolves into existential dread
     Cm                                 Ab
And then the guilt that follows at the weakness you possess
    Eb                                  G
To feel like this, to be like this, why am I such a mess
   Cm                            Ab
A self-fulfilling prophecy that doesn’t have to be
    Eb                         G
We don’t need to be victims of our biology
          Cm                                       Ab
When the walls feel like they’re closing in, when darkness blankets all
        Eb                                   Bb
You’re not alone, it’s not forever, there’s help that you can call


[Chorus]
Eb                   G                 Cm   Bb Ab
   There’s nothing wrong with feeling wrong
               Bb                Eb
   You can be fixed if you are broken
Eb             G                    Cm Bb Ab
   Some of us need help becoming stro--o--ong
Ab                 Bb          Eb
   Because we’re short on serotonin

[Verse 2]
          Cm                             Ab
Well the sickness in your brain, it’s a sickness all the same
               Eb                       G
And if you're fixin' for a change, then you can fix the pain
 Cm                             Ab
Mental health is paramount, but it’s not guaranteed
     Eb                                G
Some of us must work harder for that which comes naturally
         Cm                            Ab
But the toil of the ascent brings the beauty of the peak
     Eb                       G
The poet and the author offer up their worst critiques
      Cm                      Ab
I’m chemically unbalanced but I am not ashamed
      Eb                             Bb
To admit I take a pill to calm down my mind’s hurricane


[Chorus]
Eb                   G                 Cm   Bb Ab
   There’s nothing wrong with feeling wrong
               Bb                Eb
   You can be fixed if you are broken
Eb             G                    Cm Bb Ab
   Some of us need help becoming stro--o--ong
Ab                 Bb          Eb
   Because we’re short on serotonin
Ab                 Bb          Cm
   Because we’re short on serotonin
Ab                 Bb          Eb
   Because we’re short on serotonin
