 I'm gonna get me some cardboard box - es,

 You know what them boxes are for!
 
 Am        Am/E   Am/G Am        Am/E   Am/G 
 I'm gonna rent me a 'U - Haul' trail - er,
 Am             Am/E Am/G   Am     Am/E Am/G 
 Hook it on the back  of ...my old car,
 Am      Am/E   Am/G   Am    Am/E  Am/G 
 Call up some of my stronger bud - dies,
  Am         Am/E  Am/G    Am        Am/E Am/G 
 That's what your strong buddies are for!
 
  F                G

  Am           Am/E    Am/G   Am          Am/E   Am/G 
 Give it to the Sal - vation Army, or the Good - will,
   Am     Am/E Am/G  Am         Am/E Am/G 
 We've got so much junk it's a joke,
  Am               Am/E Am/G  Am        Am/E  Am/G 
 Wrap a knick- nack in some old news - paper,
    Am            Am/E    Am/G     Am        Am/E  Am/G 
 I know it was a present, but the damn thing broke!
 
  Am       Am/E  Am/G Am    Am/E  Am/G  
 Your old shoes, and my old T - shirts,
 Am          Am/E   Am/G  Am       Am/E  Am/G 
  My strong buddies crave ice cold beers,
  Am                 Am/E  Am/G     Am         Am/E Am/G 
 Don't throw that a - way, it's a family heir -loom,
 Am             Am/E Am/G        Am     Am/E Am/G 
  I've had that ash - tray for fifteen years!

 We're gonna move,  we're gonna move,

 And move into a brand new better space,

             Am             Am/E   Am/G      Am             Am/E    
 We got the books, and the records, and the tapes, and the pictures,
 Am/G    Am           Am/E      Am/G      Am       Am/E Am/G 
 And the pots and the pans, and all the breakable glass,
       Am        Am/E  Am/G      Am         Am/E  Am/G 
 The living room couch, and the dining room table,
       Am             Am/E  Am/G    Am         Am/E Am/G 
 The washer, and the dryer, what a pain in the ass!
 
               Am         Am/E  Am/G      Am         Am/E  Am/G 
 We've got the TV, and the home enter - tainment... centre,
      Am        Am/E Am/G      Am        Am/E Am/G 
 The box spring,  and the queen-size bed,
              Am               Am/E   Am/G      Am            Am/E  Am/G 
 We got the Christmas deco - rations, and the bureau, and the play - pen,
       Am          Am/E Am/G Am                
 IF WE HAD A PIANO,  I THINK I'D DROP DEAD!
 
 F                         G             
  Brrrrrrrrrrrr! Oh, yes, yes! Brrr, dah!

        Am        Am/E      Am/G Am       Am/E 
 At the end of the day, the old place is empty,
 Am/G    Am       Am/E  Am/G  Am         Am/E Am/G 
 And the new place hous - es all of our stuff,
   Am          Am/E  Am/G      Am      Am/E Am/G 
 Unpack all the crap in the cardboard boxes,
     Am        Am/E  Am/G     Am        Am/E Am/G 
 It wasn't that bad,  no, it wasn't so rough,
 Am              Am/E   Am/G Am                Am/E  Am/G 
  But my strong buddies... look a little bit grumpy,
    Am   Am/E   Am/G  Am          Am/E Am/G 
 I don't why----- I broke my butt,
        Am        Am/E  Am/G      Am       Am/E  Am/G 
 To - morrow we'll call  up the telephone compan - y,
 Am              Am/E    Am/G   Am  Am/E Am/G 
  And get another set of house keys cut!
 
  F                G                 
 We're gonna move,  we're gonna move,
 Am Am/E Am/G Am Am/E Am/G 
       

 Yeah, move-----------------------------!
