Verse 1
Eb
Ab
Billy Horton was a cautious man of the road
Eb
He walked looking over his shoulder
Bb
Remained faithful to its code
Eb
When something caught his eye
Ab
He'd measure his need
Eb
Bb
Eb
And then very carefully he'd proceed
Billy met a young girl
Ab
in the early days of May
Eb
It was there in her arms
Gm
Eb
Ab
he let his cautiousness slip away
Eb
In their lover's twilight
Ab
as the evening sky grew dim
Eb
He laid back in her arms
Bb
Eb
and laughed at what had happened to him
Ab
On his right hand
Billy tattooed the word love
Gm
and on his left hand was the word fear
Eb
And in which hand he held
Bb
his faith was nev er clear
Eb
Come Indian summer
Ab
he took his young lover for his bride
Eb
With his own hands built
Bb
her a great house
Eb
Ab
Gm
Ab
down by the river side
Bb
Eb
Now Billy was an honest man
Ab
He wanted to do what was right
Eb
He worked hard to fill their lives
Bb
with happy days and loving night
Eb
And alone on his knees
Ab
in the darkness for steadiness he'd pray
Eb
For he knew in a restless heart
Bb
Eb
the seed of betrayal lay
Ab
One night, Billy woke from
a terrible dream,
Gm
calling his wife's name
Eb
She lay breathing beside him
in a peaceful sleep,
Bb
a thousand miles away
Eb
He got dressed in the moonlight,
Ab
and down to the highway he strode
Eb
And when he got there,
Bb
Eb
Ab
Gm
he did n't find nothing but road
Eb
But he felt a coldness rise up inside him
Ab
That he couldn't name
Eb
Just as the words tattooed
across his knuckles
Gm
Ab
He knew it would always remain
At their bedside
Eb
he brushed the hair
from his wife's face
Ab
As the moon shone on her skin so white
Eb
Filling their room
Bb
Eb
in the beauty of God's fallen light
