EABE
Billy,we've come along way together
ABG#m
And through it all
AB
You've been just like a brother to me
EABE
And Billy,we've had our share of ups and downs
ABG#m
Froze our tails sleeping on the ground
AB
When the jobs were few and far between
BEA
We've been knocking around together so long
BE
Singing them same old songs
AF#mB
Been out in the rain so long,i swear we're shrinking
Verse 2:
EABE
Billy,lately i have done some thinking
ABG#m
When i look back on our lives
AB
We've sure had ourself a time
EABE
But you know,it's been a wild world we traveled
ABG#m
And it's starting to unravel
AB
We leave so many loose ends behind
2:
BEA
We've been bucked off and kicked so many times
BE
And the ground just keeps getting harder
AF#mB
Billy,you know well as i,we ain't getting no younger
Verse 3:
EABE
Billy,another summer's come and gone
ABG#m
Now with winter coming on
AB
I know we planned on heading south
EABE
But Billy,i thought about it several days
ABG#m
And these words i'm about to say
AB
They don't taste good in my mouth
3:
BEA
But there's someone who's waiting back home
BE
Lord,if she'll still have me
AF#mB
Guess i'll be saying so long,you go on without me
End:
BF#mB
Ain't no easy way of saying goodbye
F#mBC#m
So be sure and tell 'em all down in Texas,i said Hi
