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

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

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