The Boxer Tab por Mumford And Sons

C C C C 

I am just a poor boy
                          Am
Though my story's seldom told
        G
I have squandered my resistance
       F
For a pocket full of mumbles
          C
Such are promises
              Am
All lies and jests
         G                 F
Still a man hears what he wants to hear
                    C C C C
And disregards the rest

        C
When I left my home and my family
                      Am
I was no more than a boy
        G
In the company of strangers
        F
In the quiet of the railway station
 C
Running scared
        Am           G              F
Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters
                        C
Where the ragged people go
         G 
Looking for the places
 F               C
Only they would know

        Am          G
Lie la lie, lie la la la lie lie
        Am          F        G         C C C C
Lie la lie, lie la la la la lie la la lie

        C
Asking only workman's wages
                      Am
I come looking for a job
              G
But I get no offers
        F                                  C
Just a come-on from the whores on Seventh Avenue
      Am                 G               F
I do declare there were times when I was so lonesome
                     C C C C
I took some comfort there

          C
Then I'm laying out my winter clothes
                   Am         G
And wishing I was gone going home
           F
Where the New York City winters
        C
Aren't bleeding me
        Am
Leading me
       G 
Going home

 C C C Am G G G
La la la la
 C C C Am G G G 
La la la la

La la la la

        C
In the clearing stands a boxer
                      Am
And a fighter by his trade
        G
And he carries the reminder
    F
Of every glove that laid him down
    C
Or cut him till he cried out
                      Am
In his anger and his shame
      G             F
I am leaving, I am leaving
                       C C C C
But the fighter still remains

        Am         G
Lie la lie, lie la la la lie lie
        Am         F         G        
Lie la lie, lie la la la la lie la la lie
        Am         G
Lie la lie, lie la la la lie lie
        Am         F         G
Lie la lie, lie la la la la lie la la lie
        Am         G
Lie la lie, lie la la la lie lie
        Am         F         G         C
Lie la lie, lie la la la la lie la la lie
