Intro: Riff
verse 1:
(light strum)
G
Spend your whole life chasing dreams
Cadd9
Went from sidelines to major leagues
Em D/F
And now they say ’you finally made it
Cadd9
You must be happyâ?�
G
But on dark nights
When you’re counting sheep
Cadd9
And the good times are fast asleep
Em D/F
You think, ’I’m ok just maintain it
Cadd9
I should be happyâ?�
Bridge:
G* Cadd9* Em*
But when five years pass
The same things don’t make you laugh
G* Cadd9* Em* D/F* Cadd9*
And now ten years go by alone
G
So maybe it’s time to go home
Cadd9
Pack it up and leave em a note
Em
Saying I don’t wanna do this alone
D/F Cadd9
So go pack those yellow boxes
G
And make your way home
Cadd9
When everything is out of control
Em
And you feel like you have traded your soul
D/F
For gold
Cadd9
Pack those yellow boxes and make your way home
G
Pack em up, pack em up
Yellow boxes
Cadd9
Pack em up, pack em up
Yellow boxes
Em
Pack em up, pack em up
You can always
D/F
Pack those yellow boxes
verse 2:
G
So you can spend your whole life
How it’s supposed to be
Cadd9 Em
And love right unconditionally
D/F
And you can say I found a way
Cadd9
Cause I got my family
