Paul Simon - The Boxer	

[
C
]I am just a poor boy though my story's seldom [
Am
]told
I have [
G
]squandered my resistance 
For a [
G7
]pocket full of [
G6
]mumbles, such are [
C
]promises
All lies and [
Am
]jest, still a [
G
]man hears what he [
F
]wants to hear
And disregards the [
C
]rest [
G
] [
G7
] [
G6
] [
C
]

When I [
C
]left my home and my family, I was no more than a [
Am
]boy
In the [
G
]company of strangers
In the [
G7
]quiet of a [
G6
]railway station, [
C
]running scared
Laying [
Am
]low, seeking [
G
]out the poorer [
F
]quarters
Where the ragged people [
C
]go
Looking [
G
]for the places [
G7
]only [
F
]they would [
C
]know
--------------------------------------------------------
[Chorus]
Lie la [
Am
]lie, Lie la [
Em
]lie la lie la lie, Lie la [
Am
]lie,
[
G
]Lie la lie la la la la, lie [
F
]la la la la [
C
]lie.
--------------------------------------------------------
Asking [
C
]only workman's wages I come looking for a [
Am
]job
But I get no [
G
]offers
Just a [
G7
]come-on from the [
G6
]whores on Seventh [
C
]Avenue
I do de[
Am
]clare, there were [
G
]times when I was [
F
]so lonesome
I took some comfort [
C
]there
[
G
]Lie lie lie lie la [
F
] [
F
] [
C
]

Then I'm [
C
]laying out my winter clothes and wishing I was [
Am
]gone
Going[
G
]home where the[
G7
]New York City winters[
G6
]aren't [
C
]bleeding me [
Em
]
Leading [
Am
]me, to going [
G
]home [
G7
]  [
C
]

In the [
C
]clearing stands a boxer and a fighter by his [
Am
]trade
And he [
G
]carries a reminder of ev'ry [
G7
]glove that laid him down
Or [
C
]cut him till he cried out in his anger and his [
Am
]shame
I am [
G
]leaving, I am [
F
]leaving
But the fighter still re[
C
]mains  mmm[
G
]mm mmmm  [
G7
]  [
C
]

[Chorus]
