Billy, as the world tries hard to cheat death once again

Taken me so long

When I first laid my eyes on you at Paris On The Platte

Eb Ab Em
Because I knew that I would follow you
Em
Right to my own grave
[Chorus 2]

Billy, we're so different but I think you must agree
Bbm F
That we're both disappointments
Db Gb
To so many folks in this society

But maybe you don't think I'm weak
Gb B
And maybe someday soon we'll speak
Gb B
Just like we used to do
Bb Bb
When you were you and I was meee
[Chorus 1]
