We're dyin' on the inside

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 F# A G B A C
It can't be comfortable when the whole thing's about to fall
[Chorus]

[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 F# A G B A C
It can't be comfortable when the whole thing's about to fall
[Chorus]

[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 F# A G B A C
It can't be comfortable when the whole thing's about to fall
[Verse 4]
D E B A
To make things worse, it all goes so fast
D E B A
And we try to hold on as they go past
D E B A
We need a Peter, we get a Paul
D E B A
At least Judas had the balls
D E B A
To make a move on these building doubts
D E B A
About how this messiah would shake out
D E B A
I feel the nail against my skin
D E B A
Wait for the hammer to drive it in
[Pre-Chorus]
G F# A G B A C
It can't be comfortable when the whole thing's about to fall
[Chorus]

It can't be comfortable when the whole thing's about to...
G F# A G B A C
It can't be comfortable when the whole thing's about to...
G F# A G B A C
It can't be comfortable when the whole thing's about to fall
Sh'mon
