Standard (EADGBE)
*comes later in the song. I put it up here to save space.
Here are the lyrics with chords. The Bb to A/Dm is the only part that I am not totally
convinced is correct, but I couldn't interpret that spot easily and the A/Dm is similar
enough.
"My Favorite Boxer"-Written by Kevin Barnes Performed by of Montreal
Hector Ormanos my favorite box(-)er
He goes(/) sma sho and very(/) one (/)Cheers
He turns big men to whimpering co(-)wards
Hes (/)so strong and how (/)I ad (/)ore him
Change to 2/4:
But im so weak
So much so that Im afraid to walk alone down my street
I know Ill(/)never be as brave as Hector Ormano!
Change to 2/8(?):
One summer day I was sitting on the bridge
Looking at the water be low
When I hear some laughter and fa mili ar voice
Coming from down the road Ab
It was (/)then that I saw and my heart nearly dropped
I saw (/) Hector Ormano with some friends
And as they approached my mind went blank
As I struggled to find the words
I was dying to tell him (->7)
As Hector walked by he picked up a stick
And threw it at my head
His friends went quiet and Hector said to me
What are you looking at Db wimp?
HHHHHEEEECCCTTTTTOOOORRRR!!!!!!
Back to Bb 4/4:
Hector Or manos my favorite box(-)er
Ev(/)en thought he was (/)mean to (/) me.
My father thinks im meaningless no (-)one
Compared (/)to the perfect Hec (/)tor Or (/)ma no
Hum(/) (/)
