Intro: B B Abm I am just a poor boy, though my story is seldom told. Gb I have squandered my resistance, Gb7 Gb B For a pocketful of mumbles, such are promises. Abm All lies and jest; Gb E B Gb Gb7 Gb B Still, a man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest. B Abm When I left my home and my family I was no more than a boy, Gb In the company of strangers, Gb7 Gb B In the quiet of the railway station, runnin' scared. Abm Gb E Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters, B Where the ragged people go. Gb E Gb Gb7 B Lookin' for the places, only they would know. Abm Lie-la-lie Ebm Lie-la-lie la lie-la-lie Abm Lie la lie Gb B Lie-la-lie la la la la lie la la la la lie B Abm Asking only workman's wages I come lookin' for a job, Gb But I get no offers, Gb7 Gb B Just a come-on from the xxxxxx on Seventh Avenue. Abm Gb E I do declare there were times when I was so lonesome, B Gb Gb7 Gb B I took some comfort there.

B Abm In the clearing stands a boxer, and a fighter by his trade, Gb Gb7 Gb And he carries the reminders, of every glove that laid him down, B Abm Or cut him 'til he cried out in his anger and his shame, Gb E "I am leaving, I am leaving."

Comment jouer The Boxer à l'ukulélé
The Boxer se joue en général en en picking à l'ukulélé plutôt qu'en rythmique. Si tu préfères gratter, le 4/4 passe-partout fonctionne comme solution de repli. Attends-toi à un rythme moyen, autour de 100 bpm. Tu la joues en B majeur. Celle-ci s'appuie sur des formes plus délicates, avec les accords au niveau confirmé. Fingerpick a steady rolling pattern rather than strumming to match the record.

+6 for female mezzo S 🙂
-2
Transpose +1 is easier to play and sound better in my opinion
Does anyone know how to have it so it’s a pluck rather than strum
Or transpose down 4 and capo 4th fret to stay in the same key.
Playing with +3 doesn’t sound better in my opinon but it makes the quick changes a lot easier: “only they would know” goes on ‘G A A7 D’, for example.
