[Verse]
C                   Dm  Am
  On the bus on her way home
                          G  F
Her heart beats like a metronome
C                        Dm   Am
  It doesn't speed up or slow down
                        G    F
But it gets weaker with each pound
                           C    G
And mine beats much in the same way
                            Dm   Am
When I've been sleepwalking all day
                   G                                  F
After spending the night tossing and turning with the light still on

[Verse]
C                           Dm Am
  She said she's never felt so low
                         G   F
And can't go on just getting paid
C                              Dm  Am
  For taking shit from wannabe teachers
                       G   F
That just couldn't get the grades
                     C  G
And carving out an existence
                          Dm   Am
Instead of a living don't make sense
                    G
And I can that look in her eyes
                                     F
She wants to sever ties and walk the other way

Because she knows that if she stays

[Chorus]
                       C
That she'll be filed away
              F
Just like the rest of us
          Am                               F
We're all paperwork in folders that don't like to make a fuss
            C
And confuse never taking risks at all
   F
As being completely comfortable
    Am              G              F
And don't mind sacrificing all our dreams
            F                              C
For so much less than we ever thought that we would
             G                             C
And dwell on corrections we'd make if only we could
         Bm        Am                      G
And then take out loans to pay for our own headstones
                      F
When we could use the time we spend focusing on the end
           G                 C
To fix the part that's in between

[Verse 2]
           F                                    C
But I know tomorrow is fucking useless when you can't get through today
             G                                     C                G
It's hard to get your point across when you've ran out of things to say
           F                       C
And in the off chance you think of something
    G                     Dm
The words just don't come out

[Verse 2]
      F                                C
And I know last year was dire and this year might be the same
       G                               C                 G
But remember you're not just a number, you're not just a name
               F                 G
You're not disposable, and above all you know

[Bridge]
             Am                     F
It shouldn't feel this right to be broke and alone
             C                     G
It shouldn't feel this right to be broke and alone
             Am                     F
It shouldn't feel this right to be broke and alone
             C                     G
It shouldn't feel this right to be broke and alone
                      Am                     F
You know it shouldn't feel this right to be broke and alone
        C                                   G
And you know that someday soon we'll find a place to call home
    Am                                  F             G
And even though she looks like she's in despair every day

[Outro]
                               C
She doesn't have to be filed away,
F G              Am         Bm      C
    She doesn't have to be filed away,
F G              Am         Bm      C
    She doesn't have to be filed away,
F G              Am         Bm      F
    She doesn't have to be filed away,
           C
and nor do we
