Billy Radcliffe didn't go to town
G
  And when we looked up
       D             A
He was looking right down
G        Bm          A          
Catching blue in his eyes that 
    E
were brown
G     Bm

 the eye of the Lord (The Lord)
D        G         E       A

G      Bm     A           E
Billy, sadly, didn't live long
G
He had to stay there
           D          A
Because he wasn't too strong
     G                Bm
He's stepping out the door
        A         E
Blowing up like a bomb
G      Bm
