Verse 1:
C             G        Bb
  She sits at home and tries
     F              C
to remember all the days
          G           Bb
when everybody said nothing
                F
could bring her down
C           G
  Now she's found that
    Bb
she can't stand the

site of her reflection
       G
in the windows of
     Bb          F   F#
this beat up old town
G
  She's packing all her

problems   Into a carry on bag

            F
sorrow into one less silver
G
box labeled memories

  And every night
            F
that she's alive
       G          C

And all the teardrops
         F
that she cries
     G
wont help her

and a headache that
     Bb        F
will never go away
C             G        Bb
  She's doing time and hating
      F            C
every minute of it blaming

everything on something
            F
she can't escape
    C             G
She cries and she cries
    Bb          F
But no one ever listens and
    C             G
She doesn't understand
        Bb         F   F# G
why she can't slow down

            F
sorrow into one less silver
