[Am]
[Dm]
[Am] [Dm] Walking down an empty road I saw a man in old grey [Am] clothes, a stranger
[Dm] Passing by he smiled at me but when I looked I [Am] realised the danger
[Bb] For his eyes he [C] looked so empty [F] and cold
And [Bb] something told me [C] that I'm gonna [F] be rude
[Bb] In my pocket [C] only cents and [F] dimes but then for [G] them he'd gladly [C] kill me
[A]
[Dm] Walking fast and walking fast I managed just to slip [Am] around the corner
[Dm] Caught between my running feet as I went pounding down the [Am] street like thunder
[Bb] Well I've never [C] 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'd be [A] near a gun
[Bb] Billy Potter
When [F] you woke you said that this place is [A] fun
[Dm] What have I done?
[Am]

[A]
Let me [Dm] tell you
Not Billy's fault, Billy's luck is good to have when you go [Am] in, is what you told me
[Dm] Don't go out on your own at night, for if you do you'll have to [Am] stay by me
[Bb] Now he's teaching [C] me each [F] and every day
[Bb] And I think [C] that in this place [F] I might stay
[Bb] And I never [C] ever [F] realised what a rotten [G] coward I [A] could be
[Bb] Billy Potter
You [F] never told me that I'd hit [A] a gun
[Bb] Billy Potter
[F] When you woke you said that this place is [A] fun
