Box Elder
Riff #1
e-----------7-7-7-7-5-
B-5-7-7-7-5-----------
This goes on for most of the song, except the chorus.
A
Wasn't the question you asked me
A
It wasn't the answer I gave
E A
That made me feel like I was on a train
A
Was a distant voice
A
Made me make the choice
E A
That I had to get the fuck out of this town
D A
'Cause I got a lot of things to do
D A
A lot of places to go
D E
I've got a lot of good things coming my way
E
And I'm afraid to say that you're not one of them.
A A E A
Last time I was there
You were out on the couch
Pressed into ellipsal electric (?)
It was the way that you smiled
Made me know at once
That I had to get the fuck out of this town
'Cause I've decide to make a stand
And I'm not gonna take your hand
I'm taking the next bus outta here, I'm gonna head for Box Elder, M.O.
A A E A (fade out)
