# INTRO: C,  G7,  C


C            C                F             C
Little boxes on the hillside, little boxes made of ticky-tacky
       C            G7               C             G7
Little boxes on the hillside, little boxes all the same
          C                C               
There's a green one,and a pink one, 
F              C
and a blue one,and a yellow one
     C      C               
And they're all made out of
G7                    G7
ticky-tacky, and they all look just the same



        C             C           F               C
And the people in the houses, all went to the uni-versity
      C                G7              C                G7
Where they were put in boxes, and they came out all the same
            C                    C        
And there's doctors, and there's lawyers, 
    F           C
and business ex-ecutives
      C     C               
And they're all made out of 
G7                    G7
ticky-tacky, and they all look just the same



         C               C               
And they all play on the golf course, 
F               C
and drink their mar-tinis dry
         C               G7                
And they all have pretty children, 
        C              G7
and the children go to school
        C              C                F               C
And the children go to summer camp, and then to the uni-versity
      C               G7              G7                C
Where they are put in boxes, and they come out all the same



        C            C             F                 C
And the boys go into business, and marry and raise a family
   C             G7                    C                 G7
In boxes made of ticky-tacky, and they all look just the same
          C                C              
There's a green one, and a pink one, 
      F               C
and a blue one, and a yellow one
     C       C              
And they're all made out of 
G7                    G7
ticky-tacky, and they all look just the same

    Yeah this sounds pretty good. I believe there are multiple ways to play this song, and this is one of them. Great Job :)

    Then you are tone def. I tried this playing along with 7 different versions and this wasn't even close to any of them.
