_ _ _ [A] Older ran away from his home to [E] find a way to live in peace
His [Ab] mama didn't give a damn about him and his [A] papa's on the run from the police
[D] When Billy hit the city, the city hit Billy
No one needs you when you're down and out
One kind guy with [E] the painted eyes
Picked him up and bailed him out
_ Under one [E] roof, sharing one room
Nobody cared [A] about them
_ Under one [E] roof, sharing one room
Tearing the world [A]
apart
_ _ Billy found it hard to find a [E] job to make some pay
_ All day looking around getting it [A] down on his knees and took it away
[D] Johnny was the only one who didn't talk [A] then
Till Billy found a ball
For the first time in his life Billy found out
What it felt like to be loved
_ _ Under one roof, sharing one love
Nobody cared about them
_ Under one roof, [E] sharing one love
Tearing the world [A] apart
[Bb] Somehow Billy's papa found out [F] all about the style of Billy's life
And it didn't take long before he [Bb] ran many head of night
He [Eb] cut up Johnny, stole all his [Bb] money
He called him all the names that he could find
He said, wait for Billy [F] at the factory tomorrow
Show him what they [Bb] do, the blues kind
_ Under one roof, [F] sharing one love
Now the whole world knew about them
_ Under one [F] roof, sharing one love
Tearing the world [Bb]
apart
[Gb] _ [B] Johnny said, Billy, you can't rule me [Gb] from the world, no no
_ I'm gonna face my daddy, I'm gonna show the world who [B] I'm living for
_ [E] If I lose my job, if I lose [B] my life, you know one thing is true
They can take away [Gb] anything from me, won't [B] take me from you
And at 5.30. Billy's daddy waited at the [Gb] factory for him to come _ And how he did degrade him, he caught him and he slayed [B] him And spat on him in front of everyone [E] As Billy lay dying, his father started crying [B] The cops appeared and threw him in the cane All because the person who [Gb] was the first to get through Love _ had been all mine _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [N] _ _
