I was watching a youtube clip of Marcus Mumford playing this song with a capo on the 5th fret and noticed it was here so I decide to figure it out. Enjoy! Capo on the 5th

^GI am just a poor boy Though my story's seldom told ^G/F# ^Em I have squ^Dandered my resistance For a ^Cpocket full of mumbles such are promises ^G All^G/F# lies and ^Emjests Still a ^Dman hears what he wants to hea^Cr And disregards the rest ^C/B ^G

When I le^Gft my home and my family I was no more than a boy^G/F# ^Em In the com^Dpany of strangers In the qu^Ciet of the railway station running scared ^G ^G/F#Laying l^Emow, seeking out the^D poorer quarters ^C Where the ragged people go ^G Looking for the ^Dplaces only they would know ^C ^Em ^G/F# ^G

Chorus:

Lie-la-l^Emie Lie-la-^Dlie la lie-la-lie Lie la ^Emlie Lie-la-^Clie la la la la lie ^Dla la la la l^Gie

Asking only ^Gworkman's wages I come looking for a job^G/F# ^Em But I get no offer^Ds, Just a co^Cme-on from the whores on Seventh Avenue ^G I ^G/F#do dec^Emlare, there were times ^Dwhen I was so lonesome ^C I took some comfort ^Gthere

Then I'm ^Glaying out my winter clothes And wishing I was g^G/F#one ^Em Going home^D Where the New Yo^Crk City winters aren't bleeding me ^G Bleedi^G/F#ng me^Em, going hom^De

Repeat the Chorus (He sings it a little bit different but it's difficult to distinguish la's and lie's) During solo play the verse chord progression

In the cle^Garing stands a boxer And a fighter by his tr^G/F#ade ^Em And he carries^D the reminders Of ev'^Cry glove that layed him down Or cut him^G till he cried out In his anger and his ^G/F#shame ^Em "I a^Dm leaving, I am leaving^C" But the fighter still remains ^G

Lie-la-l^Emie Lie-la-^Dlie la lie-la-lie Lie la ^Emlie Lie-la-^Clie la la la la lie ^Dla la la la l^Emie

Lie-la-^Dlie la lie-la-lie Lie la ^Emlie Lie-la-^Clie la la la la lie ^Dla la la la l^Gie
