[Verse]
 
C             Am                  F                Dm
Billy, as the world tries hard to cheat death once again
     C              Am
I've got some extra time
        F                    Dm
Which I thought that I would spend
   Eb              Ab
By working on your song
         Eb               Ab              Em
And It's shameful and I'm sorry that it's
            Em
Taken me so long
C              Am           F                Dm
Billy, you are always on my mind and I think back to
C                    Am             F            Dm
When I first laid my eyes on you at Paris On The Platte
  Eb                 Ab
I saw you walking in and
Eb               Ab             Em
Immediately fell victim to your
                  Em
Tractor-beam-like grin
 
[Chorus 1]
 
Bbm             F               Db                  Gb
Billy, we're so different but I think you must agree
Bbm                       F             Db
That we could not support the weight of expectation
       Gb               B
And it forced us to our knees
                     F
And we set about destroying ourselves
   Gb             B
As members of the cult
Gb             B
Mеmbers of the cult
Gb             C            Bb
Membеrs of the cult of masculinity

[Verse]
 
C        Am               F               Dm
Billy, I remember how you left me stay at your place
C             Am             F            Dm          Eb
As a birthday gift it was on the night of July twenty fifth
        Ab                Eb
We both slept in the same bed
                 Ab         Em
You didn't care, you let me know
                  Em
That you were not afraid
C               Am             F
Billy, you have always made me feel like royalty
Dm           C            Am
And I always looked up to you
        F              Dm              Eb
And you always made me feel like I was loved
           Ab
But then I had  to walk away
Eb        Ab                Em
Because I knew that I would follow you
                Em
Right to my own grave
 
[Chorus 2]
 
Bbm             F               Db             Gb
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
B                       F
So we continue with the task of punishing ourselves
Gb                  B
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]
 
Bbm             F               Db             Gb
Billy, we're so different but I think you must agree
Bbm                       F             Db
That we could not support the weight of expectation
       Gb               B
And it forced us to our knees
                 F
And we set about destroying ourselves
 
[Outro]
 
Gb                    B
As members of the cult
Gb             B    Db
Members of the cult
Gb                 B
Members of the cult
Gb             B            Bbm
