Might just be my preference, but Play D as 554030, sounds better than xx0232 or 200232 F 320033 Am 022000 F 332010 G 552030 |: F Am F G :|
      F
It's boxing night 

   Am
I celebrate in style

      F
with boxer shorts and spirits 

                    G
floor litteed with ghosts of bottles passed

           F
There's a naked hush

         Am
clothed only with breath and a pulse

      F
of a heart that is kicking 

                 G
as though it is desperate to be born

         F
and I'm hostage blind

 Am
deaf to the din outside

      F
Good Glasgow could burn to it's bones (timber?) tonight 

         G
and I'd barely blink an eye
F Am F G
          F
well the clock just stopped 

     Am
put that on my fucking headstone (you can cut that into my headstone)

       F
won't something move so I stop

           G
staring a hole into the phone

                   F
you can get me at home

                     G
I'll be drinking to death

                   F
just me and these walls

                 G
and a beaten up chair 

           F
on boxing day

         (F)
this is boxing night

     Am
and someone lost an eye

        F
well I swear I've lost the last drop 

             G
of whatever kept me awake, alive

    F
we fell in the Forth from a heavy right hook

      Am
to a blushed and swollen face

          F
and in a single blow it's murdered 

                  G
and now it takes years to waste away

              F
well I can't call you all night any more

         Am
I can't call you full stop

            F
though you know you can call me up any time

           G
call me whatever the fuck you want

                   F
you can get me at home

                     G
I'll be drinking to death

                   F
just me and these walls

                 G
and a beaten up chair 

                   F
you can get me at home

                     G
I'll be drinking to death

                   F
just me and these walls

                  G
and my beaten up chair 

           F
on boxing day
