[Intro]
G - C - Em - C
[Verse 1]
G
Spend your whole life chasing dreams
C
Went from sidelines to major leagues
Em
And now they say
D C
"You finally made it you must be happy"
G
But on dark nights
When you're counting sheep
C
And the good times are fast asleep
Em
You think
D C
"I'm ok just maintain it I should be happy"
[Pre-Chorus]
G Em C
But when five years pass
The same things don't make you laugh
G Em C
And now ten years go by
alone
~[Chorus]~
G
So maybe it's time to go home
C
Pack it up and leave ‘em a note
Em
Saying "I don't wanna do this alone"
D C
So go pack those yellow boxes
G
And make your way home
C
When everything is out of control
Em
And you feel like you have traded your soul
D C
For gold pack those yellow boxes
G
And make your way home
Pack ‘em up pack ‘em up
Yellow boxes
C
Pack ‘em up pack ‘em up
Yellow boxes
Em
Pack ‘em up pack ‘em up
You can always
C
Pack those yellow boxes
[Verse 2]
G
So you can spend your whole life
How it's supposed to be
C
And love right unconditionally
Em
And you can say
D C
I found a way ‘cause I got my family
[Pre-Chorus]
G Em C
Don't let five years pass
And waste time you'll never get back
G Em C
Don't let ten years go by
Alone
~[Chorus]~
G
So maybe it's time to go home
C
Pack it up and leave ‘em a note
Em
Saying "I don't wanna do this alone"
D C
So go pack those yellow boxes
G
And make your way home
C
When everything is out of control

And make your way home
