Boxing Day tab by Blink-182
Guitar Tab
Tuning: Standard
Im splitting them the riffs into parts, so you play them to lyrics below. Most of
the song consists of
chords so I'm just going to write them out. The strumming isn't that difficult to pick up.
NC means No Chord. Intro was hard to tab, but it is correct.

Intro riff
Verse riff:
Let's get started, the faint and broken-hearted,
Hold it up, I've got something I cannot hide.
Worst painkiller, that all-in filler,
The apart and departed look in my eyes.
Pre-Chorus Chords:
G Dadd11 Em7
Sad, how far you ran, I'll search this land,
Cadd9
Up through the clouds then back here.
G Dadd11 Em7 NC
We could reignite like fireflies, like an atom bomb,
NC
At all hours.
Chorus Chords:
G Cadd9
I'm empty like the day after christmas,
Em7 Cadd9
Swept beneath the wave of your goodbye.
G Cadd9
You left me on the day after christmas,
Em7 Cadd9
There's nothing left to say, and so goodnight.
Verse 2:
I will follow the trail to tomorrow,
With my loneliness with sorrow all through the night.
Sons and daughters, mothers and their fathers.
Just the bridges and the waters their clues left behind.
Pre-Chorus Chords:
Sad, how far you ran, I'll search this land,
Up through the clouds then back here.
We could reignite like fireflies, like an atom bomb,
At all hours.
Chorus Chords:
I'm empty like the day after christmas,
Swept beneath the wave of your goodbye.
You left me on the day after christmas,
There's nothing left to say, and so goodnight.
The Bridge:
Same as verse riff
Chorus Chords:
I'm empty like the day after christmas,
Swept beneath the wave of your goodbye.
You left me on the day after christmas,
There's nothing left to say, and so goodnight.
Let G ring
Goodnight. Last updated:
