Travis - Boxes

Capo on 4th fret


D Bm F#m G A
 
D          BmWhen everything
F#m           G            AWhen everything was out of reach
D           BmThe sky was up
F#m                G             AThe ground was right below our feet


                G   EmWe played in boxes
                D             We played in boxes
          BmCardboard boxes
                G   EmWe played in boxes
                DWe played in boxes
          BmCardboard boxes


D          BmWe wasted time
F#m        G               AWe wasted time before we knew
D                BmDon't punch the clock
F#m          G                AOr time will run away with you


              G   EmWe live in boxes
              D             We live in boxes
           BmConcrete boxes
             G   EmWe live in boxes
              D             We live in boxes
          BmConcrete boxes


             CAnd now your childhood is over
         AmYou're a man they have said
    EmYou silently shoulder
        GAll the plans they have made
         C                   GYou pack down your boxes and ask
Who am I?


D Bm F#m G A 


D           BmThe biggest trick
F#m         G                     AThe biggest trick they play on you
D           BmTo make you think
F#m            G                 AThe show won't go on without you


          G   EmWe go in boxes
          D             We go in boxes
         BmWooden boxes
          G   EmWe go in boxes
          D             We go in boxes
         BmWooden boxes


        CNow the room has been emptied
    AmI'm alone in my bed
    EmThe heart is a box
          GWhich the soul has fled
    C              The spell has been broken
        GAnd the last word is said


D Bm F#m G A   x2 
G Em D
