Verse 1 
Em     G         D   
Billy's leaving today (don't know where he's going). 
Em          G         D
Holds his head in disgrace (he can't escape the truth). 
Em                G D
He knows the price that he's paid. 

He admits that it's too 
C9                          D
Late to admit that he's afraid.

         G             Em             D
Tomorrow comes. Sorrow becomes his soul mate. 
              G                  Em             D
The damage is done. The prodigal son is too late.

Old doors are closed but he's always open, 
          C9              D
To relive time in his mind. 

Oh Billy.

He accepts it's his fate.

Long to admit that he was wrong.

Oh Billy.

Bridge 
C9                  Em
Once he was a lover sleeping with another. 
G                             D
Now he's just known as a cheat. 
       C9                      Em
And he wish he'd had a mirror; looked a little clearer. 
G                             D
Seen into the eyes of the weak.

Once he was a lover sleeping with another. 
G                             D
Now he's just known as a cheat. 
       C9
And he wish he'd had a mirror; looked a little clearer. 
D
Seen into the eyes of the weak.

The damage is done. The prodigal son is too late. 
    Em                  G           D
Old doors are closed but he's always open, 
          C9              D
To relive time in his mind. 

Oh Billy.
