Verse 1
A
D
Billy Horton was a cautious man of the road
A
He walked looking over his shoulder
E
Remained faithful to its code
A
When something caught his eye
D
He'd measure his need
A
E
A
And then very carefully he'd proceed
Billy met a young girl
D
in the early days of May
A
It was there in her arms
C#m
A
D
he let his cautiousness slip away
A
In their lover's twilight
D
as the evening sky grew dim
A
He laid back in her arms
E
A
and laughed at what had happened to him
D
On his right hand
Billy tattooed the word love
C#m
and on his left hand was the word fear
A
And in which hand he held
E
his faith was never clear
A
Come Indian summer
D
he took his young lover for his bride
A
With his own hands built
E
her a great house
A
D
C#m
D
down by the river side
E
A
Now Billy was an honest man
D
He wanted to do what was right
A
He worked hard to fill their lives
E
with happy days and loving night
A
And alone on his knees
D
in the darkness for steadiness he'd pray
A
For he knew in a restless heart
E
A
the seed of betrayal lay
D
One night, Billy woke from
a terrible dream,
C#m
calling his wife's name
A
She lay breathing beside him
in a peaceful sleep,
E
a thousand miles away
A
He got dressed in the moonlight,
D
and down to the highway he strode
A
And when he got there,
E
A
D
C#m
he didn't find nothing but road
A
But he felt a coldness rise up inside him
D
That he couldn't name
A
Just as the words tattooed
across his knuckles
C#m
D
He knew it would always remain
At their bedside
A
he brushed the hair
from his wife's face
D
As the moon shone on her skin so white
A
Filling their room
E
A
in the beauty of God's fallen light
