*************************** BILLY ***************************
written by White
performed by Waylon Jennings.
Capo on the 2nd fret.
Between E and A,put a E7,it sounds better.
Verse 1:
E A B E
Billy,we've come along way together
A B G#m
And through it all
A B
You've been just like a brother to me
E A B E
And Billy,we've had our share of ups and downs
A B G#m
Froze our tails sleeping on the ground
A B
When the jobs were few and far between
Chorus 1:
B E A
We've been knocking around together so long
B E
Singing them same old songs
A F#m B
Been out in the rain so long,i swear we're shrinking
Verse 2:
E A B E
Billy,lately i have done some thinking
A B G#m
When i look back on our lives
A B
We've sure had ourself a time
E A B E
But you know,it's been a wild world we traveled
A B G#m
And it's starting to unravel
A B
We leave so many loose ends behind
Chorus 2:
B E A
We've been bucked off and kicked so many times
B E
And the ground just keeps getting harder
A F#m B
Billy,you know well as i,we ain't getting no younger
Verse 3:
E A B E
Billy,another summer's come and gone
A B G#m
Now with winter coming on
A B
I know we planned on heading south
E A B E
But Billy,i thought about it several days
A B G#m
And these words i'm about to say
A B
They don't taste good in my mouth
Chorus 3:
B E A
But there's someone who's waiting back home
B E
Lord,if she'll still have me
A F#m B
Guess i'll be saying so long,you go on without me
End:
B F#m B
Ain't no easy way of saying goodbye
F#m B C#m
So be sure and tell 'em all down in Texas,i said Hi
