    Living in a box by the rails
    Bm G7
  • Only thing you use, you don't fail
    Bm G7
    When you live in a box by the rails
  • A G D
    Don't comb your hair, don't comb your tail
     
  • D
    Sweep my mess away
    D
  • Leave my body, leave my bones
    D
    Leave me holding, leave my soul
  • A Bm
    Leave me nothing I don't need at all
    G7 D
  • Nothing I don't need at all
     
    Yay from the bins, in the parks
  • Made off with the raps after dark
    Never left a trail, never made his mark
    When he gave me the raps after dark
  • Calling all his friends, never made him sad
    With all the things he never had
    It only made them feel so bad
  • For having the things he never had
     
    Sweep my mess away
  • Leave my body, leave my bones
    Leave me holding, leave my soul
    Leave me nothing I don't need at all
  • Nothing I don't need at all
     
    If you stay in that box overnight
  • Don't get out til it gets light
    There's not much lost of the secret life
    It's never gone wrong and it's never gone right
  • Now some more flowers grow
    The palm gets eaten by a few more throws
    An old man's box is full of bones
  • See his footprints see his stones
     
    Sweep my mess away
  • Leave my body, leave my bones
    Leave me holding, leave my soul
    Leave me nothing I don't need at all
  • Nothing I don't need at all
     
    Sweep my mess away
  • Leave my body, leave my bones
    Leave me holding, leave my soul
    Leave me nothing I don't need at all
  • Nothing I don't need at all
  • PLAY TOO ..
