[Intro]

G - C - Em - C

[Verse 1]
           G
Spend your whole life chasing dreams
         C
Went from sidelines to major leagues
   Em
And now they say
 D                  C
"You finally made it you must be happy"
       G
But on dark nights
When you're counting sheep
        C
And the good times are fast asleep
         Em
You think
         D              C
"I'm ok just maintain it I should be happy"

[Pre-Chorus]
          G    Em   C
But when five years pass
The same things don't make you laugh
         G   Em   C
And now ten years go by
alone

~[Chorus]~
                         G
So maybe it's time to go home
                           C
Pack it up and leave ‘em a note
                              Em
Saying "I don't wanna do this alone"
    D  C                 
So go pack those yellow boxes
                  G
And make your way home
                           C
When everything is out of control
                                   Em
And you feel like you have traded your soul
     D    C
For gold pack those yellow boxes
                   G
And make your way home

Pack ‘em up pack ‘em up
Yellow boxes
C
Pack ‘em up pack ‘em up
Yellow boxes
Em
Pack ‘em up pack ‘em up
You can always
C
Pack those yellow boxes

[Verse 2]
                      G
So you can spend your whole life
How it's supposed to be
 C
And love right unconditionally
Em
And you can say
D              C
I found a way ‘cause I got my family

[Pre-Chorus]
           G    Em   C
Don't let five years pass
And waste time you'll never get back
           G   Em   C
Don't let ten years go by
Alone

~[Chorus]~
                         G
So maybe it's time to go home
                           C
Pack it up and leave ‘em a note
                              Em
Saying "I don't wanna do this alone"
    D  C                 
So go pack those yellow boxes
                  G
And make your way home
                           C
When everything is out of control
                                   Em
And you feel like you have traded your soul
     D    C
For gold pack those yellow boxes
                   G
And make your way home
C - Em - C
Ohh ahh
You can always
G
Pack ‘em up pack ‘em up

G
Home, pack it up
                C
And leave ‘em a note sayin'
                       Em
"I don't wanna be here alone"
    D       C    
So can you pack those yellow boxes
                  G
And get yourself home
                           C
When everything is out of control
                                   Em
And you feel like you have traded your soul
     D    C
For gold pack those yellow boxes
                   G
And make your way home


Pack ‘em up pack ‘em up
C
Pack ‘em up pack ‘em up
Make your way home
Em
Pack ‘em up pack ‘em up
You can always
C
Pack those yellow boxes
              G
Make your way home
