Music Box Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]
Life inside the music box ain't
[D]easy
The mallets hit
The gears [G]are always turning
[Cm]And everyone inside [G]the mechanism
Is [D]yearning to

[Verse 2]
[G]get out
And sing another melody com
[D]pletely
So different from the one they're
[G]always singing
I close [Cm]my eyes and think that I
[G]have found me
But then I [Cm]feel mortality sur[G]round me
I [D]want to sing another [G]melody
So [C]different from the [D]one I
[G]always sing
But when I [D]do [G]the dishes
[D]I run the water very very very hot

[Verse 3]
And then [G]I fill the sink to the top with
bubbles of soap
And then [D]I set all the bottle
caps I own afloat
And it's the [G]greatest [D]voyage
in the [G]history of plastic
And then [D]I slip my hands in
and start to make waves
And then I dip my tongue in and take
a [G]taste
It tastes like [D]soap but it doesn't
really taste like soap
And [G]then I lower in [D]my whole mouth
[G]and take a gulp
And [C]start [G]to feel mortality
sur[D]round me
I close my eyes and think that I
have [G]found me
But [C]life inside the music box
[G]ain't easy
The mallet[C]s hit The gears are al

[Verse 4]
[G]
ways turning
[D]And every one inside the mecha[G]nism
Is [C]yearning to [G]get out
[D]And sing another melody comp[G]letely

[Verse 5]
Is [C]yearning to [G]get out
[C]Is yearning to get [G]out
Is [C]yearning to [G]get out
