[Verse 1]
E A B
Right on time here's the other shoe
E A B
Clouds overhead start to loom
E A B
Some born to win others fate to lose
E A B
From the options we must choose
E A B
My friend dread is right on time
E A B
Can't start to think that it is fine
E A B
Watch the tower as it starts to teeter
E A B
New lyrics follow the same old meter
[Pre-Chorus]

It can't be comfortable when the whole thing's about to fall

[Verse 2]
E A B
Butterflies, my stomach starts to heave
E A B
What joyous blunder waits for me
E A B
Finished first but I missed the start
E A B
Hitched the mule behind the cart
E A B
Take the rose by the thorns
E A B
Hope for sun, but here's the storm
E A B
So head outside and wait for rain
E A B
Watch it all go down the drain
[Pre-Chorus]

[Verse 3]
E A B
We settle in but it's time to go
E A B
Taken to sea by the undertow
E A B
Love the smell but I hate the taste
E A B
Feeling good is such a waste
E A B
Loved the book but I hate the end
E A B
Gained a lover but I lost a friend
E A B
Straight to worst, from the best
E A B
Nothin' fills that hole in my chest
[Pre-Chorus]
A G# B A C# B D
It can't be comfortable when the whole thing's about to fall
[Verse 4]
E F# C# B
To make things worse, it all goes so fast
E F# C# B
And we try to hold on as they go past
E F# C# B
We need a Peter, we get a Paul
E F# C# B
At least Judas had the balls
E F# C# B
To make a move on these building doubts
E F# C# B
About how this messiah would shake out
E F# C# B
I feel the nail against my skin
E F# C# B
Wait for the hammer to drive it in
[Pre-Chorus]
A G# B A C# B D
It can't be comfortable when the whole thing's about to fall

It can't be comfortable when the whole thing's about to...
