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

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