[Bridge]
C
In the clearing stands a boxer
C G Am
And a fighter by his trade
G
And he carries the reminders
G7 G6
Of ev'ry glove that layed him down
C
Or cut him till he cried out
G Am
In his anger and his shame
G F
"I am leaving, I am leaving"
C
But the fighter still remains
[Chorus]
Am
Lie-la-lie
G
Lie-la-lie la lie-la-lie
Am
Lie la lie
F Am
Lie-la-lie la la la la lie la la la la lie
G
Lie-la-lie la lie-la-lie
Am
Lie la lie
F C
Lie-la-lie la la la la lie la la la la lie
