[Verse 1]
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, yeah
F                                 G
It moved him secretly, it moved him powerfully
F                             C                      G                A
But prescience was lacking and the present was all
              F                     C              G
And his aptitudes were carelessly wasted
       F                  C                G                   A
And challenging life with the abandon of a fool
      F                      C                 A
He squandered the hours of his day, yeah

[Verse 2]
A                                                              G
Then darkness and disorder slapped him sharply in the face, yeah
F                                 G
It hit him like a friend, struck something deep within
A                                                      G
He couldn't break the chain of slow decay that seemed to drag him
F                                  G
Just like a fatal tie, toward the other side
F                       C               G                      A
And Billy was a lunatic just barking at the moon
              F             C        G
And his brain was totally wasted
      F                             C                  G                  A
He then exchanged his friends for a needle and a spoon
            F              C        A
And he threw his future away, yeah 

[Verse 3]
E            G             E                      G            E G E G
Bolt the door and throw away the key, yeah

E                G               E                      G 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              G C B
To light each passing day, yeah
