Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Why [G]don't[Am][Bb][Eb][C][F][G]
you call
your mother more than [D]you do?
She lies awake at night and [G]cries for you.
Why don't you write [C]a or
maybe even better
[A]Take the morning train and
head for [Bm]home [Am]again
[Em]Come [G]back,
Billy

[Em]Your mama needs you
[Am]She's made an apple pie
the [C]way [D]she used to
[G]Come back,
Billy
Joe
[Em]She loves to see you
[Am]You could be here in no
time [C]if [D]you choose to
[B]You always were an inde[Em]pendent girl
[A]But you've had time enough
to [D]see the world, so
[G]Come back,
Billy
Joe
[Em]Your mama needs you
And
[Am]Lord knows, [D]I need y[G]ou too
When you were seventeen
and [D]kissed me goodbye
You caught the train to meet
some [G]big city guy
You said you're doing fine
[C]Your sad voice on the line
[A]Gives it all away
There's just one [Bm]thing to [Am]say
Whoa
[G]Come back
