VERSE:

F5                           G5
Billy was a small town loner, who never did dream
C5                                 F5               Bb5
Of ever leaving southern Arizona, or ever hearing wedding bells ring
F5                                       G5
He never had alot luck with the ladies, but he sure had alot of good working skills
C5                                     F5                    
Bb5        C5
Never cared about climbing any ladder, He knew the way in a small cafe; found the will

            C5           F5
He met Miss Bonnie and a little bit of her was a little too much
D5                G5         F5  Bb5
A few movies and a few months later,  the feeling got strong enough
C5                                      F5 F5  Bb5
He didn't own a car so it must of been   love.......
C5                      C5   F5                 Bb5
I drove him uptown for a diamond  that's when he started goin'


CHORUS:

F5             G5
Over the line, workin' overtime
C5                                               F5
To give her things just to hear her say she don't deserve them
       Bb5                      F5
But he loved her and he just kept goin' overboard
G5                      C5
Over the limit to afford, to give her things he knew she wanted
F5              F5 G5            C5
'Cause without her   where would he be, see it's not for him
F5          Bb5 F5     Bb5
She is his only need



F5                                        G5
Ring on her finger and one on the ladder, A new promotion every now and then
C5                                                   F5                  
         Bb5              F5
Bonnie worked until she couldn't tie her apron, then stayed at home and had the first of 
two children
               F5         G5
And my, how the time did fly, The babies grew up and moved away
C5                                         F5                
Bb5               C5
Left 'em sitting on the front porch rocking, Billy watching Bonnie's hair turn gray



                    C5              F5
And every once in a-while you could see him get up and he'd head downtown
D5                  G5          F5    Bb5
'Cause heard about something she wanted,  and it just had to be found
C5                               C5          F5    
F5   Bb5
Didn't matter how simple or how much, it was love........
C5                            C5         F5                     
     Bb5
And boy ain't that love just something, when it's strong enough to keep a man goin?


CHORUS:

F5             G5
Over the line, workin' overtime
C5                                               F5
To give her things just to hear her say she don't deserve them
       Bb5                      F5
But he loved her and he just kept goin' overboard
G5                      C5
Over the limit to afford, to give her things he knew she wanted
F5              F5   G5            C5
'Cause without her where would he be, see it's not for him
F5         Bb5  F5
She is his only need
