	        verse 1 
      G 
She's on her way to work 

Her heart is wearing thin 
     Em 
The tattoos leave a mark 

From everywhere she's been 
            Am 
Cause she's never in one place 
    C 
She takes it on the chin 
     G 
Now tears are welling up 

And they are rushing down her skin 
            Am 
While she's pushing trough the door 
     C 
She hides behind a grin 
    G 
But no one really knows 

How sad she feels within 
Am C G 
Oh, oh 
Am                  C             G  D 
Life goes on, put a sad song on 


Chorus G She's tryna go the distance, but she's running out of love D It doesn't make a difference, no it's never quite enough Am Buys chocolate bars and magazines, the things that make her smile C G D But she falls down, down, down She's on her way G Back to work at 7, when the morning sun is up D She goes home at 11 with her coat all buttoned up Am Buys cigarettes and DVDs, the thing that make her smile C G D But she falls down, down, down G She's on her way to nowhere
verse 2 G Driving in the rain to her house right up the road Em Her name is on the mailbox but it never feels like home Am C When she's climbing into bed, you know, she's climbing all alone G When she's climbing into bed She's climbing on her own Am C G Oh, oh Am C G D Life goes on, put a sad song on
Chorus G She's tryna go the distance, but she's running out of love D It doesn't make a difference, no it's never quite enough Am Buys chocolate bars and magazines, the things that make her smile C G D But she falls down, down, down She's on her way G Back to work at 7, when the morning sun is up D She goes home at 11 with her coat all buttoned up Am Buys cigarettes and DVDs, the thing that make her smile C G D But she falls down, down, down G She's on her way to nowhere
verse 3 G He's working at the bar And takes a later shift Em A little drunk and far too young to end up just like this Am When he takes her by the hand C She does not resist G D They're on their way to nowhere because nowhere sure beats this
Chorus G She's tryna go the distance, now she's got a little love D A little makes a difference, even if it's not enough Am The chocolate bars and magazines, just leave 'em on the shelf C G D And put 'em down, down, down She's on her way G Back to work at 7, when the morning sun is up D They drive home at 11 to smoke cigarettes and stuff Am C G D The DVDs and memories, you keep them to yourself from the way down, down, down G They're on their way to nowhere
