Albert Lee

Verse 1
Billy's lady told him-let this be understood
somethin' better happen soon cause things don't
G G/f# Em C F#
look to good---tired of savin' pennies-tryin' to
make ends meet-come next Monday afternoon-we're
gonna be out in the street
Verse 2
Billy thought it over-he said with a smile
G Am D G G/f#
everythings gonna be allright-just a little while
gotta get down to it-pack my things and go
he put on his tennis shoes-walked out into the snow.
Chorus:
Oh Billy Tyler do you remember what you said
does your conscience get you when your lyin'
in your bed. Does it make you sorry for the
things that you've done -do you feel repentance
on the tip of your tongue-did you have to grab
~
D F#(Bend) G///Gmaj7///
your things and ru---n
Verse 3
She received a postcard-sad for her that way
G Am D G G/f#
said I found myself a job-here at whitesand bay
sendin' you some money-so that you can eat
everythings gonna be allright-soon be back on
my feet
Repeat chorus:
Fadeout on- G///Gmaj7///G///Gmaj7///
The ~ over the F# chord means to bend the whole
chord up one fret. If you listen to the record
you will get what I mean. This is a great album
to get! Any corrections or comments-email me at
