Heard this great song when i was younger and was surprised that there were no tabs for it.
Again - as with all my stuff - it might not be dead-on for the fussy types. For the rest - enjoy !
Intro : D Cascading down to A
A (rings out)
Verse 1
Momma said (G -> A)
(Bass walks up to ->) D
"Theres something weird 'bout Billy..."
A E
"I looked in his room, his bed wasn't slept in at all last night."
A D
But Papa said "Ah, now Momma dont you go talking silly..."
G D A
"He's just a young boy, he's just sowing his wild oats and thats alright."
A D
But momma said "No, something real strange bout my Billy...."
A E
"Farmer down the road said he lost a few of his sheep last night."
A D
"I know he's my own flesh and blood but he makes my blood run chilly..."
G D A
"Cause I saw him from my window and he was on the hill just screaming at the moonlight!"

"Cause I just couldn't bear to think about my baby in hell!"
A D
but he went down to the blacksmith got him out of bed and said "Get your fire hot!"
A E
"Oh! shut up your shutters and close down your doors, we're gonna need all the heat you got!"
A D
"Cause I want you to melt my silver bell down to a single shot...."
G D A
"I got a job to do and I got to get it done before the sun comes up."
