verse 1: 

E5     B5  G5       A5 
Old mister fun is back 
E5          B5         G5     A5 
Wonder where he's been hiding at 
E5            B5 
Hanging round the edge 
G5               A5    B5    C5 D5 
Walls unfortified, inside

E5       B5   G5           A5 
No different, patchwork hack 
E5        B5      G5      A5 
Toil away on an unlaid track 
E5      B5        G5               A5 
Falls closing in, got nowhere to hide 
     B5 
This time

Chorus: 
C5     G5        A5 
Finding ceilings low 
C5      G5                 A5 
I'm too big or this room's too small 
C5    G5      A5           B5 
Why's my ceiling another's floor

verse 2: 

E5       B5        G5     A5 
Past twisted, expected wrap 
E5           B5        G5       A5 
Attention span increasingly short 
E5               B5       G5                A5 
Hard to breathe, this altitude will get you high 
     B5 
I've tried

Third Part: 
C5 E5    A5   G5      F#5 
   And nobody can tell you 
   C5 E5     A5     G5 B5      
   It's a moment in time        
C5 E5     A5      G5     F#5 
   That defines and deforms you
