Verse 1:
C#C#
It's the new standard of
G#G#
Living on a thinner thread
BB
And the new look now is wanting more but have a little less
C#C#
The new you isn't who
G#G#
You thought you knew but it's what's left
BB
Let me catch my breath
BB
Let me try and start explaining this
C#C#
We always say we want to have it bigger
G#G#
We always say we want to have it better
BB
Take a look around
BB
Setting ourselves up to hold this down
C#C#
We wait around for something better
G#G#
And we always wanted something bigger
BB
But we don't work for it
BB
Cause we know it's much too big a risk

Chorus:
FF G#G# A#A# C#C#

G#G#
It's a long shot
    F#F#   C#C#    G#G#
And my chances can't get worse
G#G#
And the truth stings
    F#F#    C#C#  G#G#
Ringing out with every word
A#A#          C#C#  G#G#
It's ringing out with every word

Verse 2:
C#C#
If you knew the future of
G#G#
Exactly what lies ahead
BB
Would you change a bit or still let it lead you by the wrist
C#C#
And we pace and we wait
G#G#
For the weights to crush what's left
BB
Let me take the hit
BB
Let me see if I unravel this
C#C#
We wait around for the easy answers
G#G#
And we ignore what really matters
BB
We let the past sink in
BB
But never learned it's much too big a risk

FF G#G# A#A# C#C#

C#C#
It's too big a risk

FF G#G# A#A# C#C#

Chorus:

G#G#
It's a long shot
    F#F#   C#C#    G#G#
And my chances can't get worse
G#G#
And the truth stings
    F#F#    C#C#  G#G#
Ringing out with every word
G#G#
It's a long shot
    F#F#   C#C#    G#G#
And my chances can't get worse
G#G#
And the truth stings
    F#F#    C#C#  G#G#
Ringing out with every word
A#A#          C#C#  G#G#
It's ringing out with every word
