BOY WHO CRIED WOLF The Style Council
This is a song from the second album "Our Favourite Shop" of
The Style Council. I already worked out the chords a few years ago,
but maybe someone is interested in, although it is a quiet
old one, and The Style Council doesn't exist anymore.
INTRO
Hm7 Hm6 G^7 F#(#5)7 F#79
Hm7 Hm6
As the rain comes down, upon this sad sweet earth
G^7 F#(#5)7 F#79
I lie awake at night and - think about me
Hm7 Hm6
All those usual things, like what a fool I've been
G^7 F#(#5)7 F#79 Hm7 Hm6 F#(#5)7 F#79
I curse the awfull way - that I let you slip away.
Hm7 Hm6
For what was forged in love, is now cooling down
G^7 F#(#5)7 F#79
With only myself to blame for playing that stupid game
Hm7 Hm6
I thought I need only call and you would run
G^7 F#(#5)7 F#79
But that day you never showed honey - Well I sure learned.
G^7 D^7
That it seemes I need you more each day
G^7 D^7
Heaven knows why that it goes that way,
Hm7 Hm6
Now it's far too late - and I lost this time,
G^7 F#(#5)7 F#79 Hm7 G^7 F#(#5)7 F#79 Hm7
Like a Boy who cried wolf, like a boy who cried wolf.
G^7 D^7
And yes I know it's far too late
G^7 D^7
To ever win you back
G^7 D^7
No tale of nightmare's at my gate
C^7 G^7 F#(#5)7 F#79 Hm7
Could make you turn, my lost concern.
Hm7 Hm6
And now the night falls down, upon my selfish soul
G^7 F#(#5)7 F#79
I sit alone and wonder, where did I go wrong?
Hm7 Hm6
It always worked before you kept the wolf from my door
G^7 F#(#5)7 F#79
But one day you never showed honey, now I'm not so sure
G^7 D^7
That it seems I need you more each day
G^7 D^7
Heaven knows why that it goes that way,
Hm7 Hm6
Now it's far too late, and I've lost this time
G^7 F#(#5)7 F#79 Hm7 G^7 F#(#5)7 F#79 Hm7
Like a Boy who cried wolf, like a boy who cried wolf.
