[Intro]
E  F  F#  G

[Verses]
E                        F
Wake up, wake up, at the bottom of the stairs,
F#                 G
Laid out prone, so vividly unaware,
E                            F
Punctured out neural tissue, what can it be,
        F#                G
 You're oh so unhappy, to be so unhappy

E                      F
It's anxiety, and it's tearing you to shreds,
F#                        G
Don't die yet, baby, you forgot to make the beds,
E                      F
It's anxiety, and it's really gonna kill you,
F#            G
It's anxiety, killing you like slow poison

[Chorus]
E       F       F#      G
         Anxiety,         anxiety,
E       F       F#      G
         Anxiety,         oh woe is me
A       A#      B       C
        ohhh    ohhhh   ohhh
A      A#       B       C
ohhh   ohhhh    ohhh

[Verses]
E                               F
Now pretend it's got a hold on, bring in the night,
F#                            G
Breathe on the lines, I would love to be paralyzed,
E                   F
What is the matter, what can it be,
F#                      G
You’re oh so unhappy, to be unhappy

E                           F
Maybe you got the rabies or maybe its the flu,
F#                              G
It's gonna drive you crazy, 'cause you don't know what to do,
E                      F
 It's Anxiety, and it's really really killing you
F#            G
It's Anxiety, killing you like very slow poison

[Chorus]
E  F      F#  G
   Anxiety,    anxiety,
E  F      F#     G      E 
   Oh woe is me        [false ending]
