Am        Am       Am       Am G
Am        Am       Am       Am G

[Verse 1]
Am                           Am  
Walking down an empty road I saw 
a man in old grey clothes, a 
Em           Em
stranger;
Am                             Am
passing by he smiled at me but 
                           Em      
when I looked I realised the 
     Em
danger.
        F                   G     
For his eyes they looked so empty 
    C         C
and cold
              F                G  
and something told me that I'm 
      C         C
gonna be rolled;
      F           G               
in my pocket only cents and dimes 
    C                  D           
but then for them he'd gladly kill 
G        E
me.

[Verse 2]
Am                              
Walking past and walking fast I 
Am                          
managed just to slip around a 
  Em           Em
corner,
Am                                
thought he'd hear my running feet 
   Am                              
as I went pounding down the street 
     Em           Em
like thunder.
           F              G       
Well, I've never heard my heart 
      C         C
beat so fast
         F             G          
and I've never been so scared in 
   C         C
the past.
      F          G             C 
And I never ever realised that 
                  D       E       
this place could be evil to me.
      E


[Chorus]
      F       F            C     
Billy Porter,   you didn't tell 
                  E
me that I needed a gun.

[Interlude]

[Part of Verse 2] (Reprise)
           F              G       
Well, I've never heard my heart 
      C         C
beat so fast
         F             G          
and I've never been so scared in 
   C         C
the past.
      F          G             C 
And I never ever realised that 
                  D       G   E
this place could be evil to me,   
let me tell ya'.

[Verse 3]
     Am                       
Now, Billy's smart and Billy's 
             Am
tough, he's good to have,
                          Em       
when the going's rough he told me:
    Em

Am                                
"Don't go out on your own at night
     Am                            
 for if you do you'll have to fight
 Em           Em
 stay by me".
         F           G            
Now he's teaching me each and 
  C         C
every day
      F                  G     
and I think that in this place I 
        C         C
might stay.
      F           G               
And I never, ever realised what a 
C                 D           E 
roughneck I would turn out to 
        E
be.

[Chorus]

Billy Porter,   you didn't tell 
                  E

What have I done?
Am        Am       E       E
