Intro: G5 

Verse 1:
  
G5 
It's boxing night,  
            B5 
(And) I'll celebrate in style 
   G5 
In boxer shorts and spirits, floor littered 
     A5 
With ghosts of bottles past 
          G5 
There's a naked hush  
  B5 
Clawed only in breath and of pulse 
       G5 
Of our heart that is kicking 
                A5                   G5 
As though it is desperate to be born  


Interlude: G5 


Verse 2: 
G5 
And I'm in hostage blind 
B5 
Deaf to the dim outside 
     G5             
Good Glasgow could burn to it's timber* tonight 
        A5 
And I'd barely blink and I... 
         G5 
Well the clock just stopped 
            B5 
You can cut that on my fucking headstone* 
      G5 
Won't something move so I stop 
          A5 
Staring a hole into the phone 
                 

C5 You can get me at home D5 With a drink to ill health C5 Just me and these walls D5 And a beaten up chair G5 On boxing day
Interlude: G5 B5 G5 A5 Verse 3: G5 This is boxing night B5 And someone lost an eye G5 Well I swear I've lost the last drop A5 Of whatever kept me awake alive G5 And I fell in the forth From a heavy right hook B5 To our blushed and swollen face G5 And in a single blow it's murdered A5 And then it takes years to waste away G5 And I can't call you all mine anymore B5 And I can't call you full stop G5 But you know you can call me up anytime A5 Call me whatever the fuck you want
C5 You can get me at home D5 With a drink to ill health C5 Just me and these walls D5 And a beaten up chair C5 You can get me at home D5 With a drink to ill health C5 Just me and these walls D5 And my beaten up chair G5 On boxing day
