Billy You're My Friend

Gene Pitney


Tom: G

Em              G   
Billy you're my friend 
C6                   G 
Let me tell you what I saw 
C6               G 
I saw you in the park 
           B                D   
Walking mysteriously in the dark 
Em             G 
When I looked again 
C6                  G 
I saw you weren't alone Bill 
C6                     G 
You had a girl by your side 
           B                D 
Was then I realized she was mine 
 
Chorus: 
      Bm 
I was hurt 
              Em                    Bm 
My eyes could not believe what they saw 
              Em                    Bm 
My ears could not believe what they heard 
                              D 
But they just bent with every word they heard 
It's absurd cos 
 
Billy you're my friend 
We grew up together 
How could you do this to me 
 
Instrumental verse  
 
Chorus 
 
Billy you're my friend 
Now that I've told you what I saw 
I think I'll be on my way 
There seems to be nothing more to say 
Billy you're my friend
