Song: The Box
Artist: Holly McNarland
Album: Stuff (1997)
Written By: Holly

Tuning: STANDARD-> EADGBe

Almost all Holly McNarland songs are very easy to play.  She mostly
uses basic open chords..he favourite seems to be Em!
It?s amazing how she can take such a simple song and create into a
awesome peice of work!  I think her raging voice has a lot to do with
it....holy hell can she sing!

If anyone knows or has any idea as to what this song is about, PLEASE
email me, cause I?m dying to know. I could swear she was on something
when she wrote this tune.

Intro: Em, Cmaj7 (x32000)

Em (022000@1)   Cmaj7 (x32000@1) I had a box
Em (022000@1)      Cmaj7 (x32000@1) A box that could talk
Em (022000@1)         Cmaj7 (x32000@1)           Em (022000@1)       Cmaj7 (x32000@1) I looked inside and found a yellow ribbon


Em (022000@1)            Cmaj7 (x32000@1) So I took that box
Em (022000@1)          Cmaj7 (x32000@1) For a long long walk
Em (022000@1)        Cmaj7 (x32000@1) Em (022000@1)                 Cmaj7 (x32000@1)Em (022000@1) We had a talk, and went to look for a friend


Em (022000@1) C (x32010@1)          D (xx0232@1) I had to eat you


Well we went shopping
The whole while talking
We fell upon a little egg
And the egg started talking

Could this be true?
Have I really found you?
To stop this box from talking, well I must eat you


Em (022000@1) C (x32010@1)         D (xx0232@1) I had to eat you
   EmI (022000@1)had to eat you
   CI (x32010@1)had to eat you
     D (xx0232@1)             Em (022000@1)Cmaj7Have (x32000@1)I really found you


The egg was terrified
But not to my surprise
I had to stop his, this box from talking

So I said goodbye
And I?ll see you both next time
And I?ll be along my way, but the ribbon will always stay


 Em (022000@1) C (x32010@1)         D (xx0232@1) I had to eat you
   EmI (022000@1)had to eat you
