Billy

G          D                    C
     Billy was a good friend of mine
G               D                           C
     We grew up together ever since we were nine
G               D                      C
     We went to school, he was my best friend
G          D                                  C
     And I thought our friendship would never end

G            D                    C
     In high school he played football
G                      D             C
     And me, I didn't do anything at all
G                  D                    C
     He made touch-downs while I played pool
G                     D                                  C
     And no one could figure out which one of us was the fool

G           D                 C
     Then we both went off to college
G               D                        C
     He studied medicine while I studied foliage
G           D          C
     He got A's, I got D's
G           D                C
     He was going for his Ph.D.
G           D               C
     Then I decided to drop out
G                D                    C
     Things were getting a little too hot
G          D                                   C
     Billy stayed then became an intern then a doctor
G                 D                   C
     Then war broke out and he had to go
G                               D                     C
     But not me, I was mentally unfit or so they say, so-so

G                 D                         C
     When he came back, he wasn't quite the same
G                    D                C
     His nerves were shot but not me
G                    D                           C
     Last time I saw him, I couldn't take it anymore
G                    D                                    C
     He wasn't the Billy I knew, it was like talking to a door

G          D               C
     Billy was a friend of mine
G                   D                    C
     I grew up with him ever since I was nine
G               D             C
     We went together through school
G                D                                 C
     And now I often wonder which one of us was the fool
