Tom Russell - The boy who cried wolf

The boy who cried ^Amwolf ^D He don't cry wolf any^Gmore For one day he opened ^Amup his eyes ^D And the wolf was at the ^Gdoor

And all his faith^Cful hound dogs ^D Couldn't chase the wolf a^Emway For the boy cried 'Wo^Amlf' one too many times ^D And now the ^Gmreal wolf came to^Gday

Sing 'La la la' ^Cone more time ^D Then the fairy tale is ^Gthrough Fairy tales are^Am funny little things ^D 'Less they're ^Gmhappening to ^Gyou

The boy who cried ^Amlove ^D He don't cry love any^Gmore The wolf of love opened ^Amup his heart ^D Left it bleeding on the ^Gfloor

And a thousand healing ^Clove songs ^D Couldn't take the pain a^Emway The boy did not know ^Amtrue love ^D 'Til ^Gmlove had gone a^Gway

Sing 'La la la' ^Cone more time ^D Then the fairy tale is ^Gthrough Fairy tales are^Am funny little things ^D 'Less they're ^Gmhappening to ^Gyou

Some live in houses made of ^Amstraw ^D Some live in houses made of ^Gglass Surrounding walls of ^Ambrick and stone ^D They say, "I'm safe at home at ^Glast"

When the wolf comes prowling ^Clate one night ^D And he blows their safe house ^Emdown Nursery rhymes go ^Amrunning through their mind ^D They lay ^Gmcurled up on the ^Gground

Sing 'La la la' ^Cone more time ^D Then the fairy tale is ^Gthrough Fairy tales are^Am funny little things ^D 'Less they're ^Gmhappening to ^Gyou

The boy who cried ^Amwolf ^D He don't cry wolf any^Gmore ^D
