Song:      Big Box
Artist:    Neil Young
Album:     The Monsanto Years (2015)
Tabbed by: Javier de la Fuente
[Intro] 
Dm  Am  C  G     Dm  Am  C  F
[Verse]
Dm               Am           C                  G
Plunderco got in money trouble had to break the law 
Dm                 Am          C                F
Had to balance the fine against the benefit to all 
Bb              A                   G                  F
Made a business decision to pay the fine and break the law 
Am   C     F     Am   C       F        Gsus G Fsus F
Too big to fail, too rich for jail 
[Chorus]
F                  C                 G
They can live with that so why don't we 
F                 C                 G
After all they're just like you and me 
F               C                       G
They cast their votes and no one gets excited 
F                C          G
Because they are Citizens United 
[Interlude] 
Dm  Am  C  G     Dm  Am  C  F
[Verse]
Dm                    Am     C                  G
In the streets of the capital corporations are taking control 
Dm          Am    C          F
Democracy crushed  at their feet 
Bb            A                   G               F
Money flows free from the sky to those who come along 
Am    C       F    Am          C         F      Gsus G Fsus F
Some way, somehow, we will prevail, but now 
[Chorus]
F           C           G
How can we regain our freedom 
F            C                G
Lost by our own laws we must abide 
F             C              G
When will we take back our freedom 
F              C               G
To choose the way we live and die 
[Verse]
Dm             Am           C                   G
Main Street's boarded up now the whole town's asleep 
Dm          Am           C                       F
Mom 'n pop got boarded up in a small business retreat 
Bb                   A                  G            F
Display windows and broken glass, not a car on the street 
Am          C        F    Am          C       F    Gsus G Fsus F
Out at the big box store people lined up for more 
[Chorus]
F               C            G
People working part-time at Walmart 
F               C           G
Never get the benefits for sure 
F                     C             G
Might not make it to full time at Walmart 
F              C                   G
Still standing by for the call to work 
[Interlude] 
Dm  Am  C  G     Dm  Am  C  F
[Verse]
Dm                    Am   C                   G
Corporations have feelings, corporations have soul 
Dm             Am             C                  F
That's why they're like people just harder to control 
Bb                  A                  G                  F
They don't want to fall, so when they fall, they fall on you 
Am   C     F     Am   C       F        Gsus G Fsus F
Too big to fail, too rich for jail

[Verse]
F                    C              G
From the capital to the boarded-up main streets 
F                 C             G
Big Business is there at every turn 
F                 C                     G
From the food we eat to the clothes we wear to the TV screen 
F                 C                     G
From the air we breathe to the fuel we burn
