Boy Cries Wolf Chords & Tabs
Artist: Kind of Like Spitting
Song: Boy Cries Wolf

Tabber: Andrew Biles
This song is simple enough and enjoyable to play and sing along. It's in standard
tuning and I've included the chords down the bottom if you're unsure of any. For
the 'A' chord I tend to switch between open position and the E barre shape (shown
at the bottom), so use whichever you feel more comfortable with, although at the
end I'd recommend the barre version as it makes the A/Ab chord easier to nail.
