Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[G]Billy was seventeen and mean as hell
Bonnie said she was thirty,
it was hard to tell
Now Billy met Bonnie on a Saturday night
At the dirt track races,

[Verse 2]
it was love at first sight
[G]
Now Bonnie was wilder than
the [C]west wind [G]blows
Taught Billy every single [C]thing [G]he knows
But she never told Billy what [C]she left [G]out
The part about the trouble when
your [C]times run[G]s out

[Verse 3]
When the thrill is [D]gone,
when your deal goes [G]south
It's all over when your [C]time
run[G]s out

[Interlude 1]
[G][D][G][C][G][D][G]

[Verse 4]
Well Bonnie said, [G]"Billy,
don't you think it's time
We moved on a little further down the line"
So they knocked off a
Texaco south of town
Blew down the highway
with [C]the [G]ragtop down

[Verse 5]
[G]
Now Billy woke Bonnie
[C]up about day[G]light
Said, "You drive honey,
I've been [C]up all [G]night"
Now Billy wasn't sweatin'
[C]no [G]APB
'Cause he didn't leave
a single soul [C]alive [D]to see[G]

[Verse 6]
He was [G]just six[D]teen,
made his mama [G]proud
That don't mean nothin'
when your [C]time [D]runs [G]out

[Verse 7]
[G]Now[D][G][C][D][G][D][G]
Bonnie
kept pushin' that [C]Cadillac[G]
Billy passed out with
[C]the seat reared [G]back
Slept through Louisiana,
then [C]just past [G]dark
Bonnie pulled over in a [C]road[D]side [G]park

[Verse 8]
[G]Left Billy sleeping and she [C]called the [G]cops
He never knew nothin' when
the [C]dime [D]was [G]dropped
[D]Now [G]Bonnie knew what she [C]had to [G]do
She called the sheriff and she [C]cried on [G]cue
And the state [D]police

[Verse 9]
rousted [G]Billy out
He was dreaming about Bonnie when
his [C]time run [G]out

[Interlude 2]
[G][C][G][D][G][C][G][D]
[G]Well the sheriff told

[Verse 10]
Billy, "Boy,
you're [C]bound to [G]die
'Cause this young lady's
[D]gonna [C]testi[G]fy
That you done took her off [C]against [D]her [G]will
And she told us about the robbery
[D]and the boy you [G]killed"
Now the judge said, "Billy,
what you [C]got to [G]say
Before I have the sheriff
carry [C]you [G]away"
Now Billy looked Bonnie right [C]in the [G]eye
But he didn't even have to ask her why
But [D]he turned around when
they led him [G]out
He said I'll see you down in
hell when your time [D]runs [G]out
