Billy Dean, Billy The Kid 2 Tabs/Chords

BILLY THE KID

Tuning is DADGBD.
I must stress that this is my personal solo arrangement of this song,
which is intended for fingerstyle and is probably at variance with the
Dean version.

D7 Riff
Strapped on my holster low across my hips

Two Colt .45s with white plastic grips
G        Dm13          G       Dm13
I'd head west into our neighborhood      they'd say
D7 riff
Here comes young Billy and he's up to no good

D7 riff
I rode a trail through the neighbors' back yards

Shootin' the bad guys through my handlebars
G            Dm13         G       Dm13
Known for my bravery both far and near
D7 riff
Being late for supper way my only fear

     A                 G                        D
	I miss Billy the kid    the times that he had
                       A      G   Bm
	the life that he lived
      A                        G                       D
     	I guess he must have got caught    his innocence lost
                        A            Cadd9     D7 riff
     	I wonder where he is    I miss Billy the kid

D7 riff
These days I don't know whose side to be on

There's such a thin line between right and wrong
G           Dm13        G           Dm13
I live and learn do the best that I can
D7 riff
There's only so much you can do as a man
