A dragon lives for-ever but not so little boys.

    G                Bm     C                      G

His head was bent in sorrow green scales fell like rain.

C              G       Em     A7              D

PUFF no longer went to play a-long the cherry lane.

     G                Bm     C                 G

With-out his lifelong friend PUFF could not be brave
