Verse 1
Ab

Billy Horton was a cautious man of the road
Ab
He walked looking over his shoulder

Remained faithful to its code

When something caught his eye

He'd measure his need
Ab
Eb
Ab
And then very carefully he'd proceed
Billy met a young girl
Db
in the early days of May
Ab
It was there in her arms
Cm
Ab
Db
he let his cautiousness slip away
Ab
In their lover's twilight
Db
as the evening sky grew dim
Ab
He laid back in her arms
Eb
Ab
and laughed at what had happened to him
Db
On his right hand
Billy tattooed the word love
Cm
and on his left hand was the word fear
Ab
And in which hand he held
Eb
his faith was nev er clear
Ab
Come Indian summer

he took his young lover for his bride

With his own hands built
Eb
her a great house

down by the river side
Eb
Ab
Now Billy was an honest man
Db
He wanted to do what was right
Ab
He worked hard to fill their lives
Eb
with happy days and loving night

And alone on his knees

in the darkness for steadiness he'd pray

the seed of betrayal lay
Db
One night, Billy woke from
a terrible dream,
Cm
calling his wife's name
Ab
She lay breathing beside him
in a peaceful sleep,
Eb
a thousand miles away

He got dressed in the moonlight,

and down to the highway he strode
Ab
And when he got there,
Eb
Ab
Db
Cm
he did n't find nothing but road
Ab
But he felt a coldness rise up inside him
Db
That he couldn't name
Ab
Just as the words tattooed
across his knuckles
Cm
Db
He knew it would always remain
At their bedside
Ab
he brushed the hair
from his wife's face
Db
As the moon shone on her skin so white
Ab
Filling their room
Eb
Ab
in the beauty of God's fallen light
