Intro
D# G# A#
We're dyin' on the inside
D# G# A#
Dyin' on the inside
D# G# A#
Dyin' on the inside
D# G# A#
Dyin' on the inside
[Verse 1]
D# G# A#
Right on time here's the other shoe
D# G# A#
Clouds overhead start to loom
D# G# A#
Some born to win others fate to lose
D# G# A#
From the options we must choose
D# G# A#
My friend dread is right on time
D# G# A#
Can't start to think that it is fine
D# G# A#
Watch the tower as it starts to teeter
D# G# A#
New lyrics follow the same old meter
[Pre-Chorus]
G# G A# G# C A# C#
It can't be comfortable when the whole thing's about to fall
[Chorus]
D# G# A#
We're dyin' on the inside
D# G# A#
Dyin' on the inside
D# G# A#
Dyin' on the inside
D# G# A#
Dyin' on the inside
[Verse 2]
D# G# A#
Butterflies, my stomach starts to heave
D# G# A#
What joyous blunder waits for me
D# G# A#
Finished first but I missed the start
D# G# A#
Hitched the mule behind the cart
D# G# A#
Take the rose by the thorns
D# G# A#
Hope for sun, but here's the storm
D# G# A#
So head outside and wait for rain
D# G# A#
Watch it all go down the drain
[Pre-Chorus]
G# G A# G# C A# C#
It can't be comfortable when the whole thing's about to fall
[Chorus]
D# G# A#
We're dyin' on the inside
D# G# A#
Dyin' on the inside
D# G# A#
Dyin' on the inside
D# G# A#
Dyin' on the inside
[Verse 3]
D# G# A#
We settle in but it's time to go
D# G# A#
Taken to sea by the undertow
D# G# A#
Love the smell but I hate the taste
D# G# A#
Feeling good is such a waste
D# G# A#
Loved the book but I hate the end
D# G# A#
Gained a lover but I lost a friend
D# G# A#
Straight to worst, from the best
D# G# A#
Nothin' fills that hole in my chest
[Pre-Chorus]
G# G A# G# C A# C#
It can't be comfortable when the whole thing's about to fall
[Verse 4]
D# F C A#
To make things worse, it all goes so fast
D# F C A#
And we try to hold on as they go past
D# F C A#
We need a Peter, we get a Paul
D# F C A#
At least Judas had the balls
D# F C A#
To make a move on these building doubts
D# F C A#
About how this messiah would shake out
D# F C A#
I feel the nail against my skin
D# F C A#
Wait for the hammer to drive it in
[Pre-Chorus]
G# G A# G# C A# C#
It can't be comfortable when the whole thing's about to fall
[Chorus]
D# G# A#
We're dyin' on the inside
D# G# A#
Dyin' on the inside
D# G# A#
Dyin' on the inside
D# G# A#
Dyin' on the inside
D# G# A#
Dyin' on the inside
D# G# A#
Dyin' on the inside
D# G# A#
Dyin' on the inside
D# G# A#
Dyin' on the insidee
[Pre-Chorus]
G# G A# G# C A# C#
It can't be comfortable when the whole thing's about to...
G# G A# G# C A# C#
It can't be comfortable when the whole thing's about to...
G# G A# G# C A# C#
It can't be comfortable when the whole thing's about to fall
Sh'mon
[Chorus]
(play 5 times)

We're dyin' on the inside

Dyin' on the inside
D# G# A#
Dyin' on the inside
D# G# A#

[Pre-Chorus]

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