Little Boxes (Weeds intro, Season 8, cover of a Malvina Reynolds song)

Intro: D

     D

Little boxes on the hillside,

     G            D

Little boxes made of ticky-tacky.

     F#m      Bm

Little boxes, little boxes,

    D          A7

little boxes all the same.

        D

There's a green one, and a pink one,

    G              D

And a blue one, and a yellow one,

          F#m         Bm

And they're all made out of ticky-tacky,

       D      A7     D

And they all look just the same.

      D            

And the people in the houses,

   G        D

All went to the university.

         F#m       Bm

Where they were put in boxes,

       D              A7

And they came out all the same.

          D

And there's doctors, and there's lawyers,

   G       D

And business executives.

          F#m          Bm

And they're all made out of ticky-tacky,

       D      A7     D

And they all look just the same.
