E|E|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------|| THE BOX - Damien Rice E|E|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------|| This is an approximation of the chords he plays (see the video above if you want to see how he plays it): G: 355433 D: 557775 or 55433x Em7: 779787 Bm: 799777 C: 8 10 10 9 8 8 Am(add9): 577500 [Verse] G D Don't give me something to hold in my hand Em7 Something else to believe in Bm Cause I'm over it C And your reason for wanting to stay G Your reason for wanting to change D Em7 My reason for everything I've done to you... [Chorus] Am(add9) I have tried but I don't fit Em7 Into this box I'm living with Am(add9) I could go wild Em7 But you might lock me up Am(add9) And I have tried but I don't fit Em7 Into this box you call a gift Am(add9) I could be wild and free Em7 But god forbid then you might envy me [Verse] G D So don't give me love with an old book of rules Em7 'cause that kind of love is just for fools Bm And I'm over it C And my reasons for walking away G My reasons for wanting to change D Em7 My reasons for everything I lost with you... [Chorus] Am(add9) I have tried but I don't fit Em7 Into this box I'm living with Am(add9) I could go wild Em7 But you might lock me up Am(add9) And I have tried but I don't fit Em7 Into this box you call a gift Am(add9) I could be wild and free Em7 But god forbid then you might envy me... [Chorus/Outro] (some lyrics are just hummed here)== Am(add9) I have tried but I don't fit Em7 Into this box I'm living with Am(add9) I could go wild Em7 But you might lock me up Am(add9) And I have tried but I don't fit Em7 Into this box you call a gift Am(add9) I could be wild and free Em7 But god forbid then you might envy me Am(add9) I could be wild and free
