"Boxing" by Ben Folds

Riff Rundown

Difficulty: Intermediate

Fingerings

There are some exciting tempo changes in this song. If you haven't heard it, it is actually played on piano, which is what Ben Folds is known for. If you need to work on some really cool jazz voicings, this song is one of the best! There are some very awkward chord arrangements in the song, but we included the video for the more challenging parts. Remember, watch closely for the tempo changes. You can play this loosely, because the song just has one thematic piano.

You will need to tune as followed :

D, A, D, G, B, E ( drop d tuning )
