THE BOXER cover by the Father/Kids @FRANZRhythm chords
Start Jamming...
[Em] [E] [C]
I am just a poor boy, though my [G] story's seldom [Am] told
[G] I have squandered my resistance
For a pocket full of mumbles, [C] such as promises
[G] All I [Am] suggest, still [G] a man hears [F] what he wants to hear
And disregards [C] the rest, [G] indeed
When [C]
I left my home, my family, I was [G] no more [A] than a boy
[G] In the company of strangers, in the quiet of the railway [C] station, running scared
[G] [A] Laying low, [G] seeking out the [F] poorer quarters where the ragged people [C] go
Looking [G] for the places only they [C] would know
[Am] Lie, lie, lie, lie, [Em] lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, [Am] lie, lie, [G] lie, lie, [C] lie, lie
Asking only what man's wages I am
Looking [G] for [Am] a job that I get [G] no offers
Just to come home from the worst of [C] 7th Avenue
[G] I do [Am] declare, there [G] were times when I [F] was so lonesome I took some fun [C] for fair
La la [G] la la la la La [C]

La [G] la la
La la la la la La [C] la la la-la
Then I'm laying out my winter clothes and [G] wishing I [Am] was gone, [G] going home.
But the New York City [C] winters aren't leading me, [Em] leading [Am] me, [G] going home.
[C]
In the clearing stands a boxer and a fighter [G] by [A] his train,
[G] and he carries the reminders of every love that laid [C] him down,
or cut him till he cried out, and his anger [A] and his shame.
[G]
I'm leaving, [F] I'm leaving, but the fighter [C] still remains.
