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

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

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