Music Box

Capo: 1st fret

[Verse]
         C                   C7
Past the fourth turn, by the barn
          F                             Fm
Where Mrs Fullman lived till she passed on
C                         A7
There is a cottage by the lakeside
      D7                  G    G7
Where fairies come out at night
 
          C                C7
There’s a music box in the bedroom
             F          Bb7
It’s playing songs from 1922
           C               A7
And if you listen for long enough
       D7                         G  G7
You’ll fall asleep and might wake up
 
[Chorus]
C
Walking in a wonderland
C
Played in by a marching band
F                            Fm
Reaching for a peach, from a shiny purple tree
 
  C
A butterfly the size of you offers to go flying with you
F                             Fm         C
Climb onto her back, and doze off as you relax
 
[Verse]
         C                C7
Past the light post by the sea
           F               Fm
There is a forest, with no trees
           C               A7
There is a garden, by the wayside
      D7               G     G7
Where flowers grow overnight
 
          C                C7
There’s a music box in the bay
            F                  Bb7
down on the sea bed not so far away
           C            A7
and if you lean in just close enough
          D7                           G      G7
you’ll be taken by the water and might wake up
 
[Chorus]
C
Walking in a wonderland
C
Played in by the singing sand
F                          Fm
Waking from a dream, on an underwater beach
 
  C
A manta ray the brightest blue, offers to go flying with you
F                              Fm         C
Lay down on her back, and doze off as you relax
 
[Verse]
        C              C7
All the places in your dreams,
         F            Fm
are they fiction or a memory
       C               A7
If you listen for long enough,
            F     Fm
you’ll fall asleep...

                  past the fourth turn by the barn
where mrs. fullman lived ’til she passed on
there is a cottage by the lakeside
where fairies come out at night

there’s a music box in the bedroom
it’s playing songs from 1922
and if you listen for long enough
you’ll fall asleep and might wake up

walking in a wonderland
played in by a marching band
reaching for a peach
from a shiny purple tree

a b+tterfly the size of you
offers to go flying with you
climb on to her back
and doze off as you relax

past the light post by the sea
there is a forest with no trees
and there is a garden by the wayside
where flowers grow over night

there’s a music box in the bay
down on the seabed not so far away
and if you lean in just close enough
you’ll be taken by the water and might wake up
walking in a wonderland
played in by the singing sand
waking from a dream
on an underwater beach
 
a manta ray the brightest blue
offers to go flying with you
lay down on her back
and doze off as you relax
 
oh the places in your dreams
are they fiction, or memory?
if you listen for long enough
you’ll fall asleep
