Intro 1
(A minor)
Verse 1
Falling (A minor) from the top floor your (F major) lungs
Fill like parachutes
(D minor) Windows go rush (A minor) ing by.
People inside,
Dressed for the funeral (F major) in
black (D minor) and white.
(Gsus4) These (A minor) ties strangle our necks,
hanging in the (F major) closet,
Found in the (D minor) cubicle;
(Gsus4) Without (A minor) a name, just numbers, on the re (F major) sume stored
in the (D minor) mainframe, marked (G major) for delete. (A minor)

Verse 2
Please take these hands (A minor)
Throw them in the (F major) river,
Wash away the (Gsus4) thing
(G major) s they never (A minor) held
Please take these hands,
Throw me in the (F major) river,
Don't let me (E major) drown before
the workday (A minor) ends.
Verse 3
9 (A minor) to 5! 9 to 5!
And we're (F major) up
Verse 4
to our necks,
Drowning in the seconds,
(A minor) Ingesting the morning commute (D minor)
(A minor) Lost (G major) in a (A minor) (F major) dead subway sleep
Now (A minor) we lie wide awake in our
parent (D minor) s bed (A minor) s,
(F major) Tossing and turning.
Tomorrow we'll get up (A minor)
Drive to work,
Single file
With everyday
(D major) It's (D minor) like (A minor) the last.
(F major) Waiting for the life to start,
is it (A minor) always just always ahead of the curve?
(F major) (A minor)
Verse 5
Please take these hands
Throw them in the (F major) river,
Wash away the (G major) things they never (A minor) held
Please take these hands,
Throw me in the (F major) river,
Don't let me (E major) drown before
the workday (A minor) ends.
Verse 6
(A minor)
Just keep making copies
Of copies
Of copies
Verse 7
When will it end?
(A minor) It'll (G major) (F major) (E major) (A minor) (G major) never (F major) end,
(E minor) 'til it gets (A minor) so bad (G major)
(Gsus4) That the ink fill (A minor) s (F major) in our fingerprints
An (E major) d (A minor) the silhouette (Gsus4) of your own
face (F major) becomes the black (C major) cloud of (A minor) war
And even in our dreams we're (Gsus4) so afraid
(F major) the weight will (A minor) offset who we are
All those breaths (Gsus4) that you took (F major) have now
been (A minor) canceled in your lungs.
Last night (E major) my teeth fell (F major) out like
ivory (G major) typewriter keys
(A minor) And all the monuments an (E major) d skyscraper
(F major) s burned down and (G major) filled the sea.
Verse 8
(F major) Save (E major) our ship (A minor)
(G major) The anchor is part of the (F major) desk
We (E major) can't cut (A minor) free,
The (G major) water is flooding the (F major) decks
The (E major) memo's sent (A minor)
through the cur (G major) rents
Com (F major) puters spark (E major) like flares
(A minor) I can (G major) see them.
They don't (F major) touch me,
Touch (E minor) me.
Verse 9
(A minor) Please someone, (G major)
(F major) Teach me how (E minor) to swim. (A minor)
(G major) Please, don't let me (A minor) drown,
Please, don't let me (F major) drown. (C major) (F major) (A minor)
