[Intro]
B*
Long ago and far away in a land no map can find
                                             E     B  B  B  B
There lived in long forgotten days a boy who never cried

[Verse 1]
   B       G#m7     E    B             B     F#7      E
He was his mother's only child, so she never wondered why
  Em      B           Em          B             F#m   B
Until the news spread far and wide of a boy who never cried

[Verse 2]
     Em      B         Em       B                  F#m    B
From fabled lands, the pilgrims came to behold the silent child
     Em      B         Em       B               F#m    B
In ancient tones, they sang his name over every lonely mile
           B         G#m7    E   B                 B         D#m      E
There were those who came in reverence, there were those who stood outside
    Em        B          Em    B        B       F#m   B
And whispered low in quatrains dim of a boy who never cried

[Verse 3]
Em        B        Em      B               F#m       B
Days grew long and short until the seasons turned to years
    Em         B          Em     B            B      F#m        B
The child grew strong and fairer still with a face unstained by tears
    B     G#m7     E      B             B         G#m7      E
And every maid and lady fair held her breath when he passed by
          Em      B        Em    B         B       F#m   B
For their mothers bid them all beware of a man who never cries

       B     G#m7      E       B         B           G#m7   E
And he lived alone for all his years and then on the day he died
   Em       B        Em    B         B       F#m   B
He shed a single precious tear for a boy who never cried.............
