[Verse 1]
F                       Dm
I'm coming apart at the seams
                         Gm
and everyone's pulling at me
                    F
And I am unraveling
                            Dm
The smile isn't quite what it seems
                               Gm
But it does well to hide what's beneath
All the pressure is staggering

In the unraveling, Father unravel me

When I can't feel a thing
               F/A   Bb
Have mercy and let me bleed
            Gm
I know it's dumb
           C                           Dm
But I have been numb, for way too long
        C/E F  Bb
And oh, oh, ohhhhh
    Dm  C/E F   Bb
And oh, oh, oh, oh

So goodbye now, yellow brick road
                                 Gm
Thanks a lot what I need is back home
So homeward I'm traveling
