Melodies are obviously different and Comfortably Numb is more drawn out and the chorus is longer but the structure is essentially the same with the exception of the extra verse at the begining. Just imagine listening to GYOW at like 70% speed.

I can't think of any songs that came before GYOW with this structure and CN came out shortly after GYOW so I've always thought it might be more than a coincidence. Also, Lindsey used the same structure on later songs, one that comes to mind is Isn't it Midnight.
Who knows, maybe I've put too much thought into it
