[Verse 1]
[Am]Just out of Monday
[Dm]I ru[G]n into a friend
[C][G][C][Dm][Am]
[Dm]Down the street,
down the [F]street[Dm]
[Am]Where I live

[Interlude 1]
[Dm]

[Verse 2]
[Am]Sad things b[Dm]egin[Am][Dm]
I [G]could feel from [C]within
[Am]From the m[Dm]essage,
from the [F]message[Dm]
He [Am]had to [Dm]give

[Verse 3]
[Dm]
[Am]About a buddy of mine
[Dm]He r[Am]un ou[G]t o[Dm]f ti[G]me,
his life run out [C]of time
[Am]Some[Dm]body past noon,
shot across the [F]room
[Dm]And now the man no longer lives

[Verse 4]
[Dm]Too [Am]bad about him
[Dm][Am][Dm]
[G]Too sad about [C]him[G][C][Am]
[Dm]Don't get me wrong,
the man is [F]gone[Dm]

[Verse 5]
But it's a wonder, he lived this long
[Dm]
Up in the city they called him Boss Jack
But down home [F]he was an alley [Dm]cat
Ah, [F]didn't [Am]care nothing about
being [Dm]black[Am]
[Dm]Oh, Billy Jack

[Verse 6]
[Dm]Ther[Am]e[Dm][G][Am]
[Dm]can'[Am]t be no fun,
[Dm]can'[Am]t be [Dm]no fu[Am]n
[Dm]To be sh[G]ot, shot with a hand gun
[Dm]Your body sprawled out,
you without a doubt
Running people out, there on the floor

[Verse 7]
[Am]Sad bloody m[Dm]ess
[G]Shot all up in his chest,
[C]shot in his che[Dm]st
One sided duel, gun and a fool, [F]ah
[Dm]What a way to go
[Am]

[Verse 8]
[Dm]Up in the city they called him Boss Jack
But [F]down home he was a alley cat
Ah, [Dm]didn't [Am]care nothin' 'bout
being [Dm]Black[Am]
[Dm]Oh, Billy Jack
