Capo 4

Intro:
Em   A7   D   A

Verse 1:
D
Billy was a small town loner
Em
Who never did dream
A               A7
Of ever leaving southern Arizona
D               A7 
Or ever hearing wedding bells ring
D
He never had a lot of luck with the ladies
Em 
But he sure had a lot of good working skills
A                 A7
Never cared about climbing any ladder
D                    A
He knew the way in a small caf?
A                  A7
Found the will; he met Miss Bonnie and a
D
Little bit of her was a little too much
Bm                 Em         D/F#
A few movies and a few months later
G
The feeling got strong enough
A                     
They didn?t own a car
      A7             D  G
So it must have been love
A                A7             D
That drove him uptown for a diamond;
            A
That?s when he started goin?

Chorus:
D
Over the line
Em
Working overtime
A                          A7
To give her things just to hear her say she don?t
D                    A
Deserve them, but he loves her, and he just
D
Kept going overboard
Em
Over the limit to afford
A                  A7              D
To give her things he knew she wanted
                     Em                     
?Cause without her where would he be?
A                 A7   D          A    D  A
See, it?s not for him; she is his only need

Verse 2:
D
Ring on her finger and one on the ladder
Em
A new promotion every now and then
A                       A7
Bonnie worked until she couldn't tie her apron
D                        A
Then stayed at home and had the first of two children
D
And my, how the time did fly
Em
The babies grew up and moved away
A                        A7
Left ?em sitting on the front porch rocking
D                                     A
And Billy watching Bonnie?s hair turn gray
          A7
And every once in a while, you could
D
See him get up and he?d head downtown
Bm                    Em            D/F#
?Cause he heard about something she wanted
G
And it just had to be found
A                 A7
Didn?t matter how simple or how much
       D   G
It was love
A                    A7
And boy, ain?t that love just something
D                           G         A
When it?s strong enough to keep a man goin?

[Chorus]

Coda:
D
Over the line, 
Em
Working overtime
A               D   A
She is his only need
D
Overboard
Em
Over the limit
A               D
She is his only need
