Me and Billy the Kid(Chords)

	        G 
Yeah me and Billy the Kid we ain't never got along 
G 
Didn't like the way he cocked his hat and he wore his gun all wrong 
C 
We had the same girlfriend and he never forgot it 
               G 
She had a cute little chihuahua but one day he up and shot it 
   D 
He rode the hard country down the New Mexico line 
    G 
He had a silver pocket watch that he never did wind 
    D 
He crippled a guitar player for playin his favorite song 
    G 
Yeah me and billy the kid we ain't never get along 
 
G 
 
Yeah me and Billy the Kid we never got along 
Didn't like the way he buckled his belt and he wore his gun all wrong 
He was bad to the bone all hopped up on speed 
I would've left if it wasn't for that senorita 
He gave her silver and he paid her hotel bill 
But it was me she loved and she said she always will 
I'd always go see her when billy was gone 
No me and Billy the kid never got along 
 
Me and Billy the kid we never got along 
I didn't like the way he tied he shoes and he wore his gun all wrong 
One day I said to billy, I got this foolproof scheme 
We'll rob the Wells Fargo,  it's bustin at the seams 
I admit that I framed him but I don't feel bad 
Cause the way I was livin was drivin me mad 
Billy went for his gun but his gun was on wrong 
No me and billy the kid never got along 
 
No me and Billy the Kid never got along 
I sure like the way he swayed in the wind when I played his favorite song 
Now my baby sings harmony to la cucaracha 
We wind our pocket watches and pet her new chihuahua 
We moved into a hotel got a room with a shower 
I lay and listen to that watch tick hour after hour 
Outside I hear the wind going on sto strong 
Yeah me and Billy the Kid we never got along
