Verse 1: 
 
D5 
Strapped on my holster low across my hips 
 
Two Colt .45's with white plastic grips 
    G5 
And I'd head west through our neighborhood 
               D5 
And they'd say 'Here comes young Billy 
 
And he's up to no good'... yeah 
 
Verse 2: 
D5 
I rode a trail through the neighbor's back yard 
 
Shooting the bad guys through my handlebars 
G5 
Known for my bravery both far and near 
D5 
Being late for supper was my only fear 
 
Chorus: 
A5                G5 
I miss Billy the kid 
                  D5 
The times that he had 
                 A5  
The life that he lived 
A5                      G5 
I guess he must've got caught 
              D5 
His innocence lost 
                  A5 
I wonder where he is 
C5                D5 
I miss Billy the kid 
 
Verse 3: 
D5 
These days I don't know whose side to be on 
 
There's such a thin line between right and wrong 
G5 
I live and learn, do the best I can 
D5 
There's only so much you can do as a man 
 
Chorus: 
A5                G5 
I miss Billy the kid 
                  D5 
The times that he had 
                 A5  
The life that he lived 
A5                      G5 
I guess he must've got caught 
              D5 
His innocence lost 
                  A5 
I wonder where he is 
C5                D5 
I miss Billy the kid
