A G
i can recall the warm youth of a summer day, yeah
F G
the sweetest lemonade, the darkest game arcade,
A G
and billy had a yearning in the corner of his mind.
F G
it moved him secretly. it moved him powerfully.
F C G A
but prescience was lacking and the present was not all
F C G
and his aptitudes were carelessly wasted.
F C G A
and challenging life with the abandon of a fool
F G A
he squandered the hours of his day.
INTRO RIFF
then darkness and disorder slapped him sharply in the face, yeah.
it hit him like a friend, struck something deep within.
he couldn't break the chain of slow decay that seemed to drag him
just like a fatal tie toward the other side.
and billy was a lunatic, just barking at the moon,
and his brain was totally wasted.
he then exchanged his friends for a needle and a spoon
and he threw his future away.
E G E G
bolt the door and throw away the key.
E G E G
your dim reflection is all that you can see.
F C G A
so where is the justice when no one is at fault
F C G
and a human life is tragically wasted?
F C G A
how fragile is the flame that burns within us all
F G A
to light each passing day?
G C B
