Billy chords by Keith Urban

Verse 1:
E
Billy left on Friday night with twenty dollars cash
      E
Had a thousand more and a diamond on his hand when he got back
        A
I don't know just where Billy got that dough
E
Saturday he spent in style
E
Drinks were on the house
E
Lincoln here, and a Jackson there
E
Suspicions were aroused
E

A dime was dropped and a name was named
E
A body soon was found
E
A travelin' Bible salesman on his monthly trip to town
             A
Three bullet holes
                    E
A .38 done took his soul
            A
What do you know
                         B
No diamond ring no money roll

Verse 2:
  A
A quick investigation
      A
They dragged Billy to the station
                                    E
And broke him down with the third degree
A
His alibi unraveled
A
Judge Riley banged his gavel
  F#               B
A 12-man jury all agreed
      Bm      A
So he must be guilty

Verse 3:
E
I knew Billy spent that night
E
Winning big at cards
E
And the salesman was a married man
E
Who broke my sisters heart
E
Billy sits in Levenworth
E
Waiting for the gas
E
And I know lots of other things
                G
But no one ever asked
                 A
So they'll never know
                           E
Swear to God they'll never know
        A                                    B
Case is closed, that's how the story will be told
