Little Boxes Cifras

Notes:
The song is written in 3/4, so I like to play it picking the root note and then the
bottom strings twice to emphasize the whimsical nature of the melody. I also tried to place
the chords above the right syllable, didn't have a lot of luck struggling with the
formatting though. Just remember
 
Capo: 1

Little boxes on the hillside, little boxes made of ticky-tacky
       E            B7               E             B7

            E               B7                    E

just the same

And there's doctors, and there's lawyers, and business ex-ecutives
            E               B7                    E

the same

And they all have pretty children, and the children go to school
        E              E                A               E
And the children go to summer camp, and then to the university
      E               B7              E                E
Where they are put in boxes, and they come out all the same

There's a green one, and a pink one, and a blue one, and a yellow one
            E               B7                    E
And they're all made out of ticky-tacky, and they all look just
