Verse 1
F

Billy Horton was a cautious man of the road
F
He walked looking over his shoulder

Remained faithful to its code
F
When something caught his eye
Bb
He'd measure his need
F
C
F
And then very carefully he'd proceed
Billy met a young girl
Bb
in the early days of May
F
It was there in her arms
Am
F
Bb
he let his cautiousness slip away
F
In their lover's twilight
Bb
as the evening sky grew dim
F
He laid back in her arms
C
F
and laughed at what had happened to him
Bb
On his right hand
Billy tattooed the word love
Am
and on his left hand was the word fear
F
And in which hand he held
C
his faith was never clear
F
Come Indian summer
Bb
he took his young lover for his bride
F
With his own hands built
C
her a great house
F
Bb
Am
Bb
down by the river side
C
F
Now Billy was an honest man
Bb
He wanted to do what was right
F
He worked hard to fill their lives
C
with happy days and loving night
F
And alone on his knees
Bb
in the darkness for steadiness he'd pray
F
For he knew in a restless heart
C
F
the seed of betrayal lay
Bb
One night, Billy woke from
a terrible dream,
Am
calling his wife's name
F
She lay breathing beside him
in a peaceful sleep,
C
a thousand miles away
F
He got dressed in the moonlight,
Bb
and down to the highway he strode
F
And when he got there,
C
F
Bb
Am
he didn't find nothing but road
F
But he felt a coldness rise up inside him
Bb
That he couldn't name
F
Just as the words tattooed
across his knuckles
Am
Bb
He knew it would always remain
At their bedside
F
he brushed the hair
from his wife's face
Bb
As the moon shone on her skin so white
F
Filling their room
C
F
in the beauty of God's fallen light
