If you're freezing on your left side and you're boiling on your right side,
then I guess you might be warm upon the line
E|-----------------------------------------------------------------|

I was flying home and I saw the sunset from the sky. I saw the dark come
spooning down upon the land
E|-----------------------------------------------------------------|

CHORUS:

And as the old year took a bow and joined the setting sun, it comes around
again like a refrain

E|-5---5---4---4-----------2---2---5---5---4---4-------------------|

And we all sing along and think of things we should've done, till one year
when the new year never came

Little comfort, little comfort. I'm afraid you're not enough. I've had some
learning both unwelcome and unkind
E|-----------------------------------------------------------------|

Are you a good one or a cruel one? It is just the laws that make us bad.
What can we do to measure where we stand
E|-----------------------------------------------------------------|

Don't let that sense of urgency betray you in the dark. The rustle of a
curtain's not a sign
