[Am] [Dm]
[Am] [Dm] Walking down an empty road I saw a man in old grey clothes, [Am] a stranger
[Dm]
Passing by he smiled at me but when I looked I [Am] realised the danger
[C] [Bb] For his eyes [C] he looked so empty [F] and cold [Bb] And something told [C] me that I'm gonna [F] be rolled
[Bb] In my pocket [C] only cents [F] and dimes but then [G] for them he'd gladly [C] kill me
[A] [Dm] Walking fast and walking fast I managed just to slip [Am] around the corner
[Dm] But did he mind running free as I went pounding down [Am] the street like thunder
[Bb] Well I've never had my heart [F] beat so fast [Bb] And I've never [C] been so scared [F] in the past
[Bb] And I [C] never ever [F] realised that this [G] place would be [A] evil to me
[Bb] Billy Potter, you [F] didn't tell me that I needed [A] a gun
[Bb] Billy Potter, [F] when you wrote you said that this place is [A] fun
What have [Dm] I done?
[A] [Em]
[Dm]
[A] [Dm] [Am]
[Bb] Well I've never [C] had my heart beat [F] so fast [Bb] And I've never [C] been so scared [F] in the past
[Bb] And I never [C] ever [F] realised that this place [G] would be evil [C] to me
[A] Let me tell [Dm] you, not Billy's fun, Billy's tough
It's good to have when you go in [Am] like we told me
[Dm] Don't go out on your own at night for if you do you'll have to [Am] play stay by me
[Bb] Now he's reaching [C] me each and [F] every day [Bb] And I think that [C] in this place I [F] might stay
[Bb] And I never [C] ever [F] realised what a ruffling [G] I would turn up [A] to be
Billy [Bb] Potter, you [F] didn't tell me that I needed [A] a gun
Billy [Bb] Potter, when [F] you wrote you said that this place is [A] fun
What have [Dm] I done?
[Am] Billy [Bb] Potter, you [F] didn't tell me that I needed [A] a gun
Billy [Bb] Potter, when you [F] wrote you said that this place [A] is fun
Billy [Bb] Potter, [F] you never told me that I'd be on the [A] run
Billy [Bb] Potter, [F] when you wrote you [A] said that this place is fun
Billy [Bb] Potter,
