The Box chords by Katy Perry

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
Am
I was living in a small mind
With no lifeline

C
And no messages can reach me from the outside

F
When I looked out over the horizon

E
Didn’t notice the sun was setting or just rising
Am
Then it hit me
Maybe bit me

C
Then I knew, quite a few would not go with me

F
I didn’t know exactly where I would be going

E
But I had to let this river in me flowing

F G
What a ride

Am
When you open your eyes

G
For the very first time

F G
A real surprise

Chorus:

Am
I started living outside of the box

C
Crossing over lines where I always used to stop

F
Living outside of the box

E
‘Cause I’m not gonna be anybody that I’m not
I always knew this day would come
When I got off my back, found some motivation
I’ve been living on the other side

Come hell or high water every moment I’m alive
