Billy Brown

             G                       Cadd9
Oh Billy Brown had lived an ordinary life
             G                      C
Two kids, a dog, and a cautionary wife
             G                      C
While it was all going according to plan
             G             D                G
Then Billy Brown fell in love with another man

             G                       Cadd9
He met his lover almost every single day
           G                         C
Making excuses through his dodly holiday
           G                           C
Unto religion that he said and duty found
              G            D                 G
They didn't know that his faith was earthlic bound

Oh Billy Brown needed a place, somewhere to go
            G                           C
He found an island off the coast of Mexico
             G                     C
Leaving his lover and his family behind
            G            D                  G
Oh Billy Brown needed to find some peace of mind

             G                            Cadd9
And on his journey and his travels on the way
          G                              C
He met a girlie who was brave enough to say
               G                                C
When they made love he shared the burden of his mind
         G               D             G
Oh Billy Brown you are a victim of the times
