A Box On A Shelf - by Casey CHORDS: Bm7(11) 0:020200, CM7 0:xx2002, F6(11) 0:xx3335, Cs4(9) 0:x33333, D(9) 0:02232, Dm(7) 0:xx0230, A7s4 0:x00030 There's a [A] box on a shelf at the [Bm7(11)] top of the [E7] stairs Near the [CM7] attic door, I know, I [C(9)] put it [E] there. It has a [A] picture of you, you're sitting [Bm7(11)] next to [E7] me, And we were [CM7] holding hands. We were [Dm(7)] only [E] three. Just some [A] neighborhood kids, always [Bm7(11)] hanging [E7] around No matter [CM7] where you were, that's [C(9)] where I'd be [E] found. But, the [A] years went by, and we [Bm7(11)] grew [E7] apart. You were so [CM7] beautiful, a [Dm(7)] gentle [E] heart, CHORUS: And here I [D] go [E] again, [A] thinking of you. I [CM7] wonder where you've gone, I [D] hope it's [E] true, That you're [D] doing [E] well, and [A] things are OK, And as for [F6(11)] me, [Cs4(9)] I guess, I'll [D(9)] miss you to-[A]-day. There's a [A] box on the shelf at the [Bm7a11] top of the [E7] stairs, It holds [CM7] memories, I wish, would [C(9)] just stay [E] there. We met a [A] lot of people [Bm7(11)] along the [E7] way, Now their [CM7] pictures, too, are [Dm(7)] hidden [E] away. I [A] lost your heart to one of [Bm7(11)] our [E7] friends, He said he [CM7] loved you more than [C(9)] I did [E] then. When you [A] looked at him, that's [Bm7(11)] when I [E7] knew, It was the [CM7] end for me, a be-[Dm(7)]-ginning for [E] you. BREAK If I could [E] do it again, make [Bm7(11)] you love [E] me, How [CM7] wonderful, what [C(9)] we could [E] be. I'd [A] fill the box, at the [Bm7(11)] top of the [E] stairs Over-[CM7]-flowing, each day, with [Dm(7)] my answered [E] prayers. But the [A] box is locked, I [Bm7(11)] have the [E7] keys And it [CM7] stays that way, to hide the [C(9)] memo-[E]-ries. But [A] nighttime dreams, or daytime [Bm7(11)] reverie, [E7] Seem to [CM7] bring you back right [Dm(7)] here to [E] me REPEAT CHORUS (repeat chorus' last line, end with "I miss you every day." on [AM7])
