Little Boy Lost
Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:no capo
[Intro]
E A
[Verse 1]
E A
In the wild New England ranges came the word one fateful day
E D A
To every town and village that a boy had lost his way
E A
All the town folk quickly gathered and the wild bush horses tossed
E D A
And they went out to search the ranges for this little boy lost
E D A
They went out to search the ranges for this little boy lost
[Pre Chorus 1]
E
Came the night
A
Came the mornin'
E
Another night
A
Another dawnin'
[Chorus 1]
D A Fm
And a mother weeps in silence as she kneels before the cross
E D A
And she prays to God in heaven for her little boy lost
E D A
And she prays to god in heaven for her little boy lost
[Verse 2]
E A
The blazin' sun beat down upon the earth that final day
E D A
And with heavy hearts they prayed to God above to show the way
E A
When from a scrubby gully came a voice they'd never forgot
E D A
Where's my daddy, Where's my daddy, Cried the little boy lost
E D A
Where's my daddy, where's my daddy, Cried the little boy lost
[Pre Chorus 1]
E
Came the night
A
Came the mornin'
E
Another night
A
Another dawnin'
[Chorus 1]
D A Fm
And a mother weeps in silence as she kneels before the cross
E D A
And she prays to God in heaven for her little boy lost
E D A
And she prays to god in heaven for her little boy lost
[Verse 3]
E A
In the wild New England ranges there's a boy that's known so well
E D A
There's a story that the town folk and bushmen often tell
E A
How he fought a rugged country where man had seldom crossed
E D A
And the mother's prayers were answered for her little boy lost
[Pre Chorus 1]
E
Came the night
A
Came the mornin'
E
Another night
A
Another dawnin'
[Chorus 1]
D A Fm
And a mother weeps in silence as she kneels before the cross
E D A
And she prays to God in heaven for her little boy lost
E D A
And she prays to god in heaven for her little boy lost
