[C]   [G]   [Am]   [G]

                                   Verse 1
[C]You're poised and ready
Unable to make a s[G]ound
Your hands are sweaty
As you look[Am] down
You're running already
When you hit the g[G]round

same chords)
                                           (C-[G]-[Am]-G)
You're willing and able
So nice to have around
The head of the table
Is tightly wound
The noise is loud
So turn it down

                                   Chorus 1

[F]When you think ab[G]out it
Try to w[Em]rap your head a[Am]round it
You find n[F]one of it
Makes [G]any sense at [A]all
[F]And people you once t[G]rusted
Are now l[Em]ooking so disg[Am]usted
And they're w[F]aiting anxiousl[G]y
For you to f[D]all

again same chords... as verse 1)
                                            (C-[G]-[Am]-G)
You take for granted
And take what you can grab
Fore say what's landed
Into your lap
You shake the hand
And take a stab

and again verse 1 chords)
                                            (C-[G]-[Am]-G)
And there's no need to doubt it
There's never been
Two ways about it
It takes a thick skin
There's ways around it
But no way in

same as 1st chorus)
When you think about it
Try to wrap your head around it
You find none of it
Makes any sense at all
And people you once trusted
Are now looking so disgusted
And they're waiting anxiously
For you to fall

* = insert cool riff here)

And t[Em]here you [Am]go   (*)
T[Em]elling everybody you k[Am]now  (*)
S[Em]elling a one man s[Am]how
So t[D]ake a look around you now
And s[F]oak it up and take a bow

same as 1st verse)
                                            (C-[G]-[Am]-G)
You're living and crawling
And trying to catch a breath
You're stalling and dying
A sudden death
And all the while
You second guess

                                    Bridge 2 chords:

[D]Ohh.. [F#m]Ooh yeah.. [Bm]Ooooh[Bm/A]hhh... [E]Ohhh

                                    Last 2 verses (verse chords change)
And n[D]ow the time has come
For it to s[F#m]top
The clown was done
So call a c[Bm]op
You're like a [Bm/A]boy
In a china sh[A]op

You're poised and ready
Unable to make a sound
Your hands are sweaty
As you look down
You're running already
When you hit the ground

[D]   [Bm]   [A]   [D]
