[Chords]

[Intro]
G C G C G C G C G
G
Well I'm the boy who cried wolf
C
And I know I lied in the past
D C G
Last night I saw his yellow eyes shining in the dark
G
Yeah I know I spawn tales with his voice
C
And I open my mouth too fast
D C G
Last night I saw his footprints in the path
G D C G
I could swim every sea, south pole to north
G D C G C
But I know I'll only ever be the boy who cried wolf
[Interlude]
G C G
G
Well I'm shepherds only son
C
And I know what a joke I've become
D C
I have a honest heart but I have lies on my tongue
G
I don't know how this started where it came from
G
You have no reason and I have no proof
C
But this time I swear, I'm tellin the truth
D C
I saw that old wolf from tail to tooth
G
And I know he's hungry and he's coming down too
D G C G
Where I could swim every sea from south pole to north
D G C
I could climb every tree scale every coarse
G D C Em Gm
Well I can only tell the truth from this day forth
G D C G
But I know I'll ever be the boy who cried wolf
C
Ooooh oh
D G
Oh I'm the boy who cried wolf
C D G
Oh I'm the boy who cried..
