The Boy Who Cried Wolf chords by Passenger

Chords with lyrics

• Capo on 3rd

A augmentedA       E MajorE
Well I am the boy who cried wolf
  C majorC            G+G
And I know I've lied in the past
  A augmentedA      E MajorE    C majorC             G+G
But last night I saw his yellow eyes shining in the dark
   A augmentedA               E MajorE
Yeah I know I've spun tales with his voice
   C majorC         G+G
And I open my mouth too fast
  A augmentedA      E MajorE    C majorC         G+G
But last night I saw his footprints in the path

   Em6Em6        C/EC/E          G6G6
Well I could swim every sea from south pole to north
  Em6Em6          C/EC/E         G+G
But I know I'll only ever be the boy who cried wolf

A augmentedA       E MajorE
Well I am the shepherds only son
  C majorC            G+G
And I know what a joke I've become;
     A augmentedA   E MajorE     C majorC         G+G
I have an honest heart but I have lies on my tongue
 A augmentedA               E MajorE
I don't know how this started or where it came from
  C majorC           G+G
And you have no reason and I have no proof
  A augmentedA      E MajorE     C majorC      G+G
But this time I swear, I'm telling the truth
 A augmentedA            E MajorE
I saw that old wolf, from tail to tooth
   C majorC               G+G
And I know that he's hungry and he's coming down too

   Em6Em6        C/EC/E          G6G6
Well I could swim every sea from south pole to north
  Em6Em6         C/EC/E          G6G6
And I could climb every tree, and scale every coarse
   E MajorE           C majorC          G+G
Well I could tell only the truth from this day forth
  Em6Em6          C/EC/E         G6G6
But I know I'll only ever be the boy who cried wolf

     E minorEm          G+G
Oh, oh I am the boy who cried wolf
Em6Em6     C/EC/E      G6G6
