E7    Am         Dm  E7              Am         Dm7 
There was a boy,   a very strange enchanted boy. 
     E       E7      Am   Am7M Am7  Am6 
They say he wandered very far, very far,  
Dm7   Am       E7 
Over land and sea; 
  Dm7        E7   Bm7(b5)   Am        F        Dm7    E7 
A little shy   and sad of eye, but very wise    was he. 
    Am           Dm         E7     Am        Dm7 
And then one day,   a magic day he passed my way; 
     E        E7      Am   Am7M    Am7        Am6 
And while we spoke of many things, fools and kings, 
Dm7      Am     E7 
This he said to me, 
     G?     Dm7         Bm7(b5)      Am   Am7M 
"The greatest thing you'll ev - er learn 
   Bm7(b5)    E7      Bm7(b5)      E7 E7M5   Am     E7 
Is just to love and  be  loved in  re - turn."
