Billys Blues

The Tiger Lillies

Key: 
Am
Billy’s in the drugstore

Dm
Seven nights a week

E
Fills himself so full of drugs

Am
He can hardly speak


Am
Then he goes out working

Dm
Selling what he can

E
If you’ve got the money

Am
You can be his man


Dm
Billy’s blue

E              Am
He’s drugstore blue


Am
Well Billy sends me letters

Dm
He’s in jail

E              Am

Dm
Billy’s blue

E              Am
He’s drugstore blue


Am
Well last time I saw Billy

Dm
He was suckin’ off a man

E
Other men were watching

Am
And he didn’t give a damn


Am
Now I look at Billy

Dm
And he’s lyin’ on a slab

E
His funeral arrangements

Am
And we’re feeling sad


Dm
Billy’s blue

E              Am
He’s drugstore blue

Dm
Billy’s blue

E              Am
He’s drugstore blue

Dm
Yeah Billy’s blue

E              Am
He’s drugstore blue
