G D C G
[Verse 1]
G D
How long have you been hangin' around
C G
Your eyes fixed to the cement ground
C G
Your heart is warm, your hands are cold
D Am
You know the truth, but the story gets old
G D
You stood on the corner for a long time
C G
People passin' by you gave you nickels and dimes
C G
They think you're one of the nameless
D Am C
Cause you got no record and you ain't famous
[Chorus]
G B7
Oh, Bill, I know how you're feelin'
Em C
Your heart's on fire and your head is reelin'
G
But with the spirit to guide you
D
And a friend beside you
C
You know you'll win
G
If you're only willin'
[Break]
G D C
[Verse 2]
G D
The sun's so hot and my heart is thumpin'
C G
Let me buy you a beer or somethin'
C G
You've been travellin' a hard road
D Am
Sit down, Bill, lighten your load
G D
If you need a friend, give me a call
C G
I got your picture on my wall
C G
From one compadre to another
D Am C
I love you, Bill, as I would my brother
[Chorus]
G B7
Oh, Bill, I know how you're feelin'
Em C
Your heart's on fire and your head is reelin'
G
But with the spirit to guide you
D
And a friend beside you
C
You know you'll win
G
If you're only willin'
G B7
Oh, Bill, I know how you're feelin'
Em C
Your heart's on fire and your head is reelin'
G
But with the spirit to guide you
D
And a friend beside you
C
You know you'll win
G
If you're only willin'
