The Box by Johnny Flynn Tuning: EADGBD Please note the tuning! The tuned down low e string is very important! Capo 2 Chords: D5: XX0230 A: X02220 G*: 230030 G: 355433 Bm: X24400 G* can also be played 230000, like a G5 Intro: D5 A G* Bm G Rob lived in a box by the rails Bm G Only thing he knew, you don't fail Bm G When you live in a box by the rails A G* D5 Don't comb your hair, don't comb your tail D5 Sweep my mess away D5 Leave my body, leave my bones D5 Leave me whole and leave my soul G* Bm Leave me nothing, I don't need at all G* D5 Nothing, I don't need at all Transition: A G* He ate from the bins in the park Stayed out with the rats after dark Never left a trail, never made his mark When he ate with the rats after dark Sweep my mess away Leave my body, leave my bones Leave me whole and leave my soul Leave me nothing, I don't need at all Nothing, I don't need at all Transition [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/j/johnny-flynn/372103.html ] Calling on his friends, never made him sad Didn't want the things he never had It only made them feel so bad For having the things he never had Sweep my mess away Leave my body, leave my bones Leave me whole and leave my soul Leave me nothing, I don't need at all Nothing, I don't need at all Transition Bm G If you stay in that box overnight Bm G And don't get out when it gets light Bm G There's not much lost of the secret life A G* Bm That's done wrong and it's never done right G Now some more flowers grow Bm G The corn gets eaten by a few more crows Bm G And an old man's box is full of bones A G* D5 Won't see his footprints in the snow Sweep my mess away Leave my body, leave my bones Leave me whole and leave my soul Leave me nothing, I don't need at all Nothing, I don't need at all D5 Sweep my mess away D5 Leave my body, leave my bones D5 Leave me whole and leave my soul G* Bm Leave me nothing, I don't need at all G* D5 Nothing, I don't need at all The outro is kind of weird, but after the last D5, you switch to A, G*, and then it's pretty much the intro over and over until you're on D5 for the last hit.  |
