Simple song, and the chords sound pretty accurate to me.
Intro:  G   D   G  D  
Little Gboxes on the hillside
Little Cboxes made of Gticky tacky
Little Gboxes on the Dhillside
Little Gboxes all the Dsame
There's a Ggreen one and a pink one
And a Cblue one and a Gyellow one
They're Gall made out of Dticky tacky
And they Gall look Djust the Gsame
And the Gpeople in houses
All Cwent to the uniGversity
Where Gthey were put in Dboxes
And they Gcame out all the Dsame
There's Gdoctors and lawyers
And Cbusiness exeGcutives
They're Gall made out of Dticky tacky
And they Gall look Djust the Gsame
And they Gall play on the golf course
And Cdrink their maGrtini dry
They Gall have pretty Dchildren
And the Gchildren go to Dschool
And the Gchildren go to summer camp
And Cthen to the unGiversity
They Gall get put in Dboxes
They Gall come Dout the Gsame
The Gboys go into business
And Cmarry and raise a Gfamily
They Gall get put in Dboxes
Little Gboxes all the Dsame
A Ggreen one a pink one
A Cblue one and a Gyellow one
They're Gall made out of Dticky tacky
And they Gall look Djust the Gsame
