Oh Billy Brown had lived an ordinary life  
             G                      C 
Two kids, a dog, and a cautionary wife 
             G                      C  
While it was all going according to plan 
             G             D                G 
Then Billy Brown fell in love with another man  

             G                       Cadd9 
He met his lover almost every single day 
           G                         C 
Making excuses through his dodly holiday 
           G                           C 
Unto religion that he said and duty found 
              G            D                 G  
They didn't know that his faith was earthlic bound

Oh Billy Brown needed a place, somewhere to go 
            G                           C  
He found an island off the coast of Mexico 
             G                     C  
Leaving his lover and his family behind  
            G            D                  G 
Oh Billy Brown needed to find some peace of mind  

             G                            Cadd9 
And on his journey and his travels on the way 
          G                              C  
He met a girlie who was brave enough to say 
               G                                C  
When they made love he shared the burden of his mind 
         G               D             G  
Oh Billy Brown you are a victim of the times
