Come Home Billy Bird

E Bm F#m A D Dm

[Verse 1]
A             D
William wakes with his clothes on.
A                D
The morning call has been and gone,
       Bm             G           
And he might not make the flight 
           A    C Bm
but he will try.
A                   D
Bit by bit it comes back to him,
A                  D
A bunch of Belgian business men
      Bm               G
And a strange drinking game, oh God 
why?

[Chorus]
E         Bm          F#m       
Come home Billy Bird, 
    A
international business traveller.
D         Dm
Come home Billy Bird.

[Verse 2]
A                      D
He hails a cab but the driver sucks.
A                          D
He drives so slowly and he talks so 
much
        Bm               G        
That it hurts Billy Bird's aching 
      A C Bm
brain.
A                    D
He runs from the cab to the check-in
 desk.
A                   D            
She says, "no way", but William 
           Bm
begs on his knees,
Continúa después del anuncio
                 G
"Please, please, please." "Well OK".

[Chorus]
E         Bm          F#m       
Come home Billy Bird, 
    A
international business traveller.
D         Dm
Come home Billy Bird.

[Verse 3]
A                    D
Drenched in sweat he finds his seat
A                                  
And with the luggage squeezed down 
D
beneath his feet
   Bm                   G         
He begins to think that things 
          A     C
can't get no worse.
A                                
But then a voice says, bags that 
D
can't be stowed
       A                    D     
In the overhead locker must go 
          Bm
below in the hold,
           G
Please let go, thank-you sir

[Chorus]
E         Bm          F#m       
Come home Billy Bird, 
    A
international business traveller.
D         Dm
Come home Billy Bird.

F#m  C#m  F#m  A
Come home William
D    Dm
Come home

[Verse 4]
A                   D     
He runs on past the carousel 
              A               D
screaming, damn my luggage all to 
hell.
      Bm                  G       
I can buy a new shirt and tie any 
A   C
day.
A                         D
He rides from the airport into town,
A                  D
To the high-school football ground
          Bm           G          
Where his son has just begun his 
            Dm
big football game.

[Chorus]
E         Bm          F#m       
Come home Billy Bird, 
    A
international business traveller.

Come home Billy Bird, 
    A
