[Intro]
\n[Acoustic Guitar, Soft Tambourine, Warm Organ]<\/p>\n
Thread by thread…
\n(Going through my head)
\nPulling it tight…
\n(Getting it right)<\/p>\n
[Verse 1]
\nLoose ends dangling
\nAll around
\nPieces scattered
\nOn the ground<\/p>\n
Little tears
\nAlong the seam
\nIs it ever
\nWhat it seems<\/p>\n
[Refrain]
\nAre you itching
\n(To tighten the stitching)
\nPulling us together
\n(To weather the weather)<\/p>\n
Tighten the laces
\n(In all the right places)
\nPulling us together
\n(Heading to forever)<\/p>\n
[Verse 2]
\nA little tension
\nKeeps it tight
\nToo much tension
\nStarts a fight<\/p>\n
If the fabric
\nStarts to tear
\nReach across
\nAnd show you care<\/p>\n
[Refrain]
\nAre you itching
\n(To tighten the stitching)
\nPulling us together
\n(To weather the weather)<\/p>\n
Tighten the laces
\n(In all the right places)
\nPulling us together
\n(Heading to forever)<\/p>\n
[Bridge]
\n[Half-Time Drums, Delayed Guitar]<\/p>\n
You’ll
\n(Pull)
\nI’ll
\n(Pull
\n… until<\/p>\n

[Breakdown]
\n[Drums Drop Out, Acoustic Guitar and Bass]<\/p>\n
Are you itching?<\/p>\n
(Yeah!)<\/p>\n
To tighten the stitching?<\/p>\n
(Yeah!)<\/p>\n
Pulling us together?<\/p>\n
(Yeah!)<\/p>\n
To weather the weather?<\/p>\n
[Full Band Explodes]<\/p>\n
[Final Refrain]
\nAre you itching
\n(To tighten the stitching)
\nPulling us together
\n(To weather the weather)<\/p>\n
[Outro]
\nTighten the laces
\n(In all the right places)
\nPulling us together
\n(Heading to forever)<\/p>\n
Are you itching
\n(Keep tightening)
\nKeep us together
\n(Keep fighting)<\/p>\n
Tighten the laces
\n(In all the right places)
\nPulling us together
\n(Heading to forever)<\/p>\n
[Acoustic Guitar, Soft Organ, Fading Percussion]<\/p>\n
Thread by thread…<\/p>\n
Seam by seam…<\/p>\n
Pulling us together…<\/p>\n
Weathering the weather…<\/p>\n
