Team StarKid - Box Of Chocolates

      This is a very hard song that I did my best to translate from the piano to guitar
I hope you guys like it

[Intro]
E                      E7                       A
   My mama always said life was like a box of chocolates,
      F#7   B                  E
you never know what you gonna get

[Verse 1]
            E                         E/G#
My name is Forrest, Forrest Gump, people call me Forrest Gump
      A                     B
Hey! Would you like a chocolate?
    E                           D
My mama was right, this box is just like life
   C7              B7    E
I wonder what you gonna get

[Verse 2]
E                        E/G#
Maybe you’ll be a college football star
      A           B
Or a Vietnam veteran
      E                       D
Or a ping-pong champion, a shrimp boat captain
    C7           B7      E
A cross-country running man

[Chorus 1]
               E               E/G#
You could get milk chocolate, dark chocolate,
A             B
   chocolate bar, chocolate
  E               E/G#            A             B
White chocolate, black chocolate,   skinny and fat chocolate
 E               D             C#m          C
Rich chocolate, poor chocolate, gimme some more chocolate
B                          A     E
  You never know what you gonna get

[Verse 3]
   E                               E/G#
I been across the country seen all walks of life
        A                                B
didn’t always know which chocolate was wrong or right
      E                         D
It’s hard tell what’s in that chocolate shell
         C7          B7               E
The only way to find out is to take a bite

(over the spoken phrase)

  E               E/G#            A             B

“I’m not a smart man, but I know what truffle is”

[Bridge]
      A7                      E
Cause I wasn’t born with the biggest brain
       A7                      E
But my mama loved me just the same “yes, she did”
   A                         G#7       C#m
So I did my best, sure as my name’s Forrest
F#m             B
Forrest Gump, that is my name

   A     G#m F#m G#m       A G#m F#m G#m
My mama said,          my mama said,
           A           Am
she said stupid is as stupid does
      E                  C#7      F#m                      B
And that’s just fine and dandy, so pass that chocolate candy

[Chorus 2]
               E               E/G#
You could get milk chocolate, dark chocolate,
A             B
   chocolate bar, chocolate
 E             E/G#            A           B
Boy chocolate, girl chocolate,   vanilla swirl chocolate
 E                E/G#             A            B
German chocolate, french chocolate,   I’m on a bench chocolate
  E              E/G#            A             B
This chocolate, that chocolate,     doggy and cat chocolate

 E                E/G#             A              B
Dollar chocolate, penny chocolate,   Forrest and Jenny chocolate
E                E/G#             A             B
  Woman chocolate, man chocolate,   lieutenant Dan chocolate
 F#m              B               E             C#m
Peace chocolate, war chocolate, shut the front door chocolate
F#m              B             C#m            C#7
Mama chocolate, son chocolate, run, Forrest, run chocolate

[Outro]
F#m                  C
You never know, you never know
           F#m       G#m   B                  E
You never,      ever     know what you gonna get

E  F#m  G#m   F#m   G#m  B

“That’s all I have to say about chocolate”
