The Boxer

Simon + Garfunkel

1:	^G#I am just a poor boy though my story's seldom t^Fmold I have s^D#quandered my resistance for a pocket full of mumbles such are pr^G#omises all lies and j^Fmests still a m^D#an hears what he w^C#ants to hear and disregards the r^G#est^D#. ^G#

2:	When I l^G#eft my home and my family I was no more than a b^Fmoy in the c^D#ompany of strangers in the q^Bm7uiet of the railway station r^G#unning scared laying l^Fmow, seeking ^D#out the poorer q^C#uarters where the ragged people g^G#o looking f^D#or the places ^C#only th^Cmey w^Bmould kn^G#ow.

R:	Lie la l^Fmie .^D#..^Fm ^C# ^D# ^G#

3:	Asking ^G#only workman's wages I come looking for a j^Fmob but I get no ^D#offers, just a c^Bm7ome-on from the whores on S^G#eventh Avenue I do decl^Fmare there were t^Bm7imes when ^G#I was s^C#o lonesome I took some comfort th^G#ere oo-la-la^D# .^G#..

4:	Then I'm l^G#aying out my winter clothes ^D#7and w^G#ishing I was g^Fmone going h^D#ome where the N^Bm7ew York C^D#7ity winters ^D#aren't bl^G#eeding me leading m^Cme, ^Fmgoing h^D#ome^G#.

5:	In the cl^G#earing stands a boxer and a fighter by his tr^Fmade and he c^D#arries the reminders of ^D#7ev'ry glove that laid him down or c^G#ut him t^Bm7ill h^D#7e cr^G#ied out in his anger and his sh^Fmame "I am l^D#eaving, I am l^C#eaving" but the fighter still rem^G#ains.

C                                              Am
I am just a poor boy though my story's seldom told
        G
I have squandered my resistance
                                        C
for a pocket full of mumbles such are promises
              Am
all lies and jests
         G                 F
still a man hears what he wants to hear
                    C  G C
and disregards the rest.___

2: 
        C                                               Am
When I left my home and my family I was no more than a boy
        G
in the company of strangers
        Dm7                          C
in the quiet of the railway station running scared
        Am          G               F
laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters
                         C
where the ragged people go
         G             F      Em  Dm     C
looking for the places only they would know.

R: 
        Am  G Am F G C
Lie la lie ..._________

3: 
       C                                          Am
Asking only workman's wages I come looking for a job
             G
but I get no offers,
        Dm7                        C
just a come-on from the whores on Seventh Avenue
         Am              Dm7       C      F
I do declare there were times when I was so lonesome
                      C           G C
I took some comfort there oo-la-la ...

4: 
          C                           G7   C             Am
Then I'm laying out my winter clothes and wishing I was gone
       G
going home
           Dm7      G7          G        C
where the New York City winters aren't bleeding me
         Em  Am     G  C
leading me,  going home.

5: 
         C                                            Am
In the clearing stands a boxer and a fighter by his trade
        G
and he carries the reminders
   G7
of ev'ry glove that laid him down
    C       Dm7  G7  C
or cut him till he cried out
                       Am
in his anger and his shame
       G             F
"I am leaving, I am leaving"
                         C
but the fighter still remains.
