This is the chords of Boxes by Gavin James on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar and Keyboard.
[Intro]
C Dm Am F
[Verse 1]
C
Went to the wrong school
Dm
Wearing the wrong shoes
Am F C
They told me that I should sit down and just bite my tongue
\’Cause if you\’re lucky
Dm
You\’ll get to university
Am
Say three hail Marys
F C Dm
And everything bad will be gone
[Refrain]
Am G F
But I\’m so tired of standing still
Am G F
And I\’m not buying what you\’re trying to sell
[Chorus]
C
So don\’t wake me up
Dm Am
If you\’re only going to tell me to give it up
F C
Then say everything I do is never enough
Dm
\’Cause you\’re lying through your teeth
Am
We don\’t fit into your boxes
F
We\’re all different underneath
C Dm
Don\’t wake me up
[Verse 2]
C
When I got my first guitar
Dm
My father told me \”Son
Am F C
Four chords is all you need to show people just who you are\”
So I played to strangers
Dm
Down by the backstreets
Am F
And everytime they caught me dreaming I\’d say
[Chorus]
C
So don\’t wake me up
Dm Am
If you\’re only going to tell me to give it up
F C
Then say everything I do is never enough
Dm
\’Cause you\’re lying through your teeth
Am
We don\’t fit into your boxes
F
We\’re all different underneath
C Dm
Don\’t wake me up
Am F
Don\’t wake me up
[Refrain]
Am G F
\’Cause I\’m so tired of standing still
Am G F
And I\’m not buying what you are trying to sell
C Dm Am
So don\’t wake me up
[Chorus]
F C
Oh, oh, oh, don\’t wake me up
Dm Am
If you\’re only going to tell me to give it up
F C
Then say everything I do is never enough
Dm
\’Cause you\’re lying through your teeth
Am
We don\’t fit into your boxes
F
We\’re all different underneath
C Dm
Don\’t wake me up
Am F
Don\’t wake me up
C Dm Am F
Don\’t wake me up
C
Don\’t wake me up
