Chords

Here's my rendition of Billy form the soundtrack, Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid. It's a bled of the lyrics from all the recorded versions that puts the whole story together in a somewhat timely fashion using the most poetic lyrics. Billy (Key of A)
       |A               |A     D        |A          |A
There's guns across the river ‘bout to pound you

         |A               |A   D          |A        |A
There's a lawman on your trail like to surround you

|D                 |D          |A          |A
   Bounty hunters dancing all around you

|E                |E                 |A    |A
 Billy, they don't like you to be so free

|A               |A    D        |A        |A
 Camping out all night on the veranda

|A                  |A          D  |A     |A
 Dealin’ cards till dawn in the hacienda

|D            |D               |A         |A
   Up to Boot Hill the like to send ya

|E               |E                 |A    |A
 Billy, don't you turn your back on me

       |A               |A        D      |A       |A
There's eyes behind the mirror of empty places 

|A                |A     D        |A        |A
 Bullet holes and rifles in their cases

|D                        |D                 |A      |A
   There’s always one more notch in four more aces

|E                |E            |A        |A
 Billy, and you're playing all alone.

|A                  |A           D  |A        |A
Spend the night with some sweet signorita

|A            |A       D       |A         |A
 Into her dark chamber she will lead ya

      |D              |D            |A          |A
In the shadows of the masa she might greet ya

|E                |E           |A      |A
 Billy, you’re so far away from home

|A                   |A          D        |A      |A
   They say that Pat Garrett has got your number

  |A                 |A     D       |A         |A
So sleep with one eye open, when you slumber

|D               |D                  |A        |A
  If Every little sound just might be thunder

|E                |E           |A      |A
 Thunder from the barrel of his gun

   |A                |A    D          |A        |A
The businessmen from Taos want you to go down

          |A         |A              D          |A         |A
So they've hired Mr. Garrett, he'll force you to slow down

|D                   |D              |A         |A
 Billy, don't let it make you feel so low down

     |E            |E                 |A        |A
To be hunted by the man who was your friend                      

|A                  |A       D       |A      |A
 Gypsy queens will play your grand finale

|A               |A     D   |A       |A
 Way down in some   Tularosa alley

|D             |D        |A          |A
   Maybe in La Rio Pecas valley

|E                |E           |A      |A
 Billy, you're so far away from home

|E                |E           |A      
 Billy, you're so far away from home
