THE BOXER ACORDES

[Intro]

[Verse]
Eb                         
  And I am just a poor boy
                          Cm  
Though my story is seldom told
       Bb                       Bb7   Bb                            Eb      
I have squandered my resistance for a pocketful of mumbles such are promises
    Cm            Eb                Bb                   
All lies and jest still a man hears what he wants to hear
Ab             Eb              Bb   Bb7 Eb
And disregards the rest mhmmmm mmmm     
                                                     Cm   
When I left my home and my family I was no more than a boy
                  Bb       
In the company of strangers
                            Eb                    
In the quiet of the railway station runnin' scared
Cm                         Ab                               Eb       
Laying low seeking out the poorer quarters where the ragged people go
Ab                                     Eb  
Looking for the places only they would know
Eb

[Verse]
        Eb                  
Seeking only workman's wages
                                      Bb    
I come looking for a job but I get no offers
                                         Eb    
Just a comeon from the whores on Seventh Avenue
Cm                      Bb               Ab         
I do declare there were times when I was so lonesome
                    Eb           Bb   Bb7 Eb
I took some comfort there mhmmmm mmmm     
                                                 Cm    
Now the years are rolling by me they are rockin' evenly
     Bb                   
I am older than I once was
                                        Eb     
And younger than I'll be but that's not unusual
            Cm            Bb           Ab                              Eb  
No it isn't strange after changes upon changes we are more or less the same
Bb                   Ab               Eb  
After changes we are more or less the same
           Cm

                                                    Cm         Bb  
Then I'm laying out my winter clothes wishing I was gone goin' home
                        Eb                        
Where the New York city winters aren't bleedin' me
Gm         Cm       Bb   Bb7 Eb
  Leadin' me to go home     
                                                    Cm   
In the clearing stands a boxer and a fighter by his trade
       Bb                   
And he carries the reminders
                                     Eb     
Of every glove that laid him down or cut him
                                       Cm   
'til he cried out in his anger and his shame
     Bb           Ab                            Eb      Bb Ab
I am leaving I am leaving but the fighter still remains
