This is the acoustic demo of Frightened Rabbit's "Boxing Night" It can be found on the State Hospital EP. I've used the lyrics from the mastered EP version of the song which can be found on Frightened Rabbit's Soundcloud page. However, if you have heard Scott perform it on their YouTube channel the lyrics will be slightly different. I've marked asterisks next to altered lyrics. Chord Instruction: G5 - 3rd Fret Power B5 - 7th Fret Power C5 - 3rd Fret Power D5 - 5th Fret Poewr Intro: G5 (Hammer the root note in all instances of this chord) Verse 1:
G5It's boxing night, (And) I'll cB5elebrate in style In G5boxer shorts and spirits, floor littered With A5ghosts of bottles past There's a G5naked hush ClB5awed only in breath and of pulse Of our G5heart that is kicking As though it is A5desperate to be born G5
Interlude: G5 Verse 2:
G5And I'm in hostage blind B5Deaf to the dim outside Good G5Glasgow could burn to it's timber* tonight And I'd A5barely blink and I... Well the G5clock just stopped You can cut B5that on my fucking headstone* Won't G5something move so I stop Staring a A5hole into the phone
Chorus:
You can get me atC5 home With a drink to iD5ll health Just me and theseC5 walls And a beaten upD5 chair On boxing G5day
Interlude: G5, B5, G5, A5 Verse 3:
This is G5boxing night And B5someone lost an eye Well I G5swear I've lost the last drop Of whatever A5kept me awake alive And I fG5ell in the forth
From a heavy right hook
To our B5blushed and swollen face And G5in a single blow it's murdered And then it takesA5 years to waste away And IG5 can't call you all mine anymore And I canB5't call you full stop But yG5ou know you can call me up anytime Call me whatA5ever the fuck you want
Chorus:
You can get me atC5 home With a drink to ill D5health Just me and these C5walls And a beaten upD5 chair You can get me at C5home With a drink to ilD5l health Just me and theseC5 walls And my beaten D5up chair On boxinG5g day
Outro: G5 *Timber - This was 'Bones' instead when it was performed acoustically, but was changed to this for the mastered EP version. *You can cut that my fucking headstone - Was: You can put that on my fucking headstone. * With a drink to ill health - Was: I'll be drinking to death
