Текст песни of Montreal — My Favorite Boxer + аккорды для гитары
Вступление
I saw another tab of this song and I spent 2 hours listening to the song and I noticed the author
got it parts of it incorrect Thanks for trying though, patrick. Following these chords should help
you sound just like the band. I think Kevin Barnes is about as good a songwriter as you
can be, by the way!

Here are the lyrics with chords. The Bb to Dm/A is the only part that I am not totally
convinced is correct, but I couldn't interpret that spot easily.
----------Chords------------
Hector Ormanos my favorite boxer
Gm F Ebm Adim
He goes smasho and Every one cheers
Bb Dm/A F7 Fm7 Bb
Dm/Bm F7 Fm7 F
He turns big men to whimpering cowards
Gm F Ebm Adim

Bb Dm/A F7 Fm7 Bb
Dm/Bm F7 Fm7 F
Change to Ab 2/4:
But Im so weak.
Cm Db
So much so that Im afraid to walk alone down my street
Eb Ab
I know Ill never be as brave as Hector Ormano!
Cm/Eb Db
(Same Chords as before)
Hector Ormano is my favorite boxer
His smile is so white like elephant ivory
Hes so handsome and all of his girlfriends
Are tall and blonde with hourglass curves
(Same Chords As before)
But I don't know many girls
And I certainly dont know any girls like that
Even if I did I wouldn't be as cool as Hector Ormano
Change to Db 2/8(?):
One summer day I was sitting on the bridge
Db Bbm Ab Gb Ab
Looking at the water below
Ab7 Db
When I hear some laughter and a familiar voice
Db Ab Bbm Ab Gb Ab
Coming from down the road.
Ab7 Db
It was then that I saw and my heart nearly dropped
Cm/Eb Gb
I saw Hector Ormano with some friends
Cm/Eb Gb
And as they approached my mind went blank
Ab Gb
As I struggled to find the words
Ab
I was dying to tell him
Ab7 Db
Ooh
Bbm Fm Gb Ab->7 Db
As Hector walked by he picked up a stick
Db Ab Bbm Ab Gb Ab
And threw it at my head
Ab7 Db
His friends went quiet and Hector said to me
Db Ab Bbm Ab Gb Ab
What are you looking at wimp?
Ab7 Db
HHHHHEEEECCCTTTTTOOOORRRR!!!!!!
Db
Back to Bb 4/4:
Hector Ormanos my favorite boxer
Gm F Ebm Adim
Even thought he was mean to me.

Dm/Bm F7 Fm7 F
My father thinks im a meaningless no one
Gm F Ebm Adim
Compared to the perfect Hector Ormano
Bb Dm/A F7 Fm7 Bb
Dm/Bm F7 Fm7 F
Hum
Bb Dm/Bm F7 Fm7 F
(Fin)
