Oh Billy Brown had lived an ordinary life  
             G5                      C5 
Two kids, a dog, and a cautionary wife 
             G5                      C5  
While it was all going according to plan 
             G5             D5                G5 
Then Billy Brown fell in love with another man  


             G5                       C5 
He met his lover almost every single day 
           G5                         C5 
Making excuses through his dodly holiday 
           G5                           C5 
Unto religion that he said and duty found 
              G5            D5                 G5  
They didn't know that his faith was earthlic bound

Oh Billy Brown needed a place, somewhere to go 
            G5                           C5  
He found an island off the coast of Mexico 
             G5                     C5  
Leaving his lover and his family behind  
            G5            D5                  G5 
Oh Billy Brown needed to find some peace of mind  


             G5                            C5 
And on his journey and his travels on the way 
          G5                              C5  
He met a girlie who was brave enough to say 
               G5                                C5  
When they made love he shared the burden of his mind 
         G5               D5             G5  
Oh Billy Brown you are a victim of the times
