[Intro]
Em

[Verse 1]
Em
I love the night, 
but not the stars
Em
The fame suckers in their
 block-long cars
C                  B
I fking hate the internet
Em
Five-star hotel, and I don't feel well
Em
I lost a night or maybe two
Em
I think I'll cancel the honeymoon
C                 B
I fking hate the internet
Em
Five-star hotel, I don't feel well

[Chorus]
            C        B         Em
And I could use some healing soon
         C        B         Em
Before I lose all feeling soon

[Verse 2]
Em
It may be rage or maybe hope
Em
I'm at the stage that
 I fear the most
C                 B
I wanna know your phobia
Em
Go on, press send, 
and we can makе friends
Em
I crossed a line a lifе ago
Em
I might be dead, 
but I just don't know
C                     B
I'm shutting down the internet
Em
Big shot hotel, I don't feel well

[Chorus]
            C        B       Em
And I could use some healing soon
         C        B       Em
Before I lose all feeling soon

Em
[Verse 3]
Em
I got some pills,
 but not some help
Em
From love junkies in
 their private hell
C              B
I wanna know euphoria
Em
Greenlight, red wine, 
and I don't feel fine
Em
I lost a life a line ago
Em
You might be here, but 
I just don't know
C                   B
This used to be the internet
Em
Fat cat hotel, I don't feel well

[Chorus]
C                    B       Em
And I could use some healing soon
C                 B       Em
Before I lose all feeling soon

[Bridge]
Em
Whoa, I get the rage, 
so live in hope
Em
I'm on a stage and
 I just can't cope
C                      B
You'll see this on the internet
Em
Go on, press like and 
make my clicks spike
Em
I lost the plot or maybe two
Em
Remind me, who the fck are you?
C                    B
Why don't we hit the minibar?
Em
Five-star hotel, 
I don't feel well

[Chorus]
            C        B       Em
And I could use some healing soon
         C        B       Em
Before I lose all feeling soon

[Outro]
Em

How to play Phobia: key, chords and progression

These are the chords for Phobia by Nothing But Thieves on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard.

Phobia by Nothing But Thieves sits in E minor (one sharp: F♯), and you need 3 chords to play it: Em, C and B.

Listen for Em – C – B – Em (i – VI – V – i in E minor): the song comes back to it again and again. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.

Good to know: B is the tricky part on guitar (barre or movable shapes). Slow the change down until it is clean; on piano and ukulele it is simpler.
