[Estrofa]
Em 
I've been waiting patiently 
  
I built this tower quietly 
    Em 
And when my well of Wellbutrin is 
Em                G F#m 
Running dry of serotonin 
Em 
I can say things I don't mean 
  
Or maybe it's the truth in me 
  Em 
I feel it building, bubbling up 
N.C. 
My tick tick time is up
[Estribillo]
        Em 
I'm so (Mis) misunderstood (-un) 
                      Em 
But I live for this (-der), my money is good (-stood) 
      G       F#m  Em 
And I came to win (Mis), so step on it (-un) 
  
And I promise you— 
N.C.                                           Em 
Only one of us gon' make it out alive and it's not you (Throat) 
  
Only one of us 
                                               Em 
Only one of us gon' make it out alive and it's not you (Cutthroat) 
  
Only one of us 
Em                                    Em 
Only one of us gon' make it out alive
[Estrofa]
          N.C. 
I've been making my Gethsemane 
    Em 
And since I was young, my ancestry (Cutthroat) 
    Em 
Was marching martydom across the 
Em                     G F#m 
Radadadadumbla plains of Utah (Cutthroat) 
N.C. 
I can't lie, I've been played 
   Em                      G N.C. 
By powerful people who get their way 
    Em 
But I, in time, will climb my mountain 
Em 
I, in time, will rise
[Estribillo]
        Em 
I'm so (Mis) misunderstood (-un) 
                      Em 
But I live for this (-der), my money is good (-stood) 
      G       F#m  Em 
And I came to win (Mis), so step on it (-un) 
  
And I promise you— 
N.C.                                           Em 
Only one of us gon' make it out alive and it's not you (Throat) 
  
Only one of us 
                                               Em 
Only one of us gon' make it out alive and it's not you (Cutthroat) 
  
Only one of us 
Em                                   N.C. 
Only one of us gon' make it out alive
