Billy Radcliffe didn't go to town
G
  And when we looked up
       D             A
He was looking right down
G        Bm          A              E
Catching blue in his eyes that were brown
G     Bm

Billy Radcliffe, owned by the state
G
From his first breath
       D        A
To the cemetery gate
G          Bm        A       E
He was the first boy born in space

  A spot of blue in the black of the eye of the Lord (The Lord)
D        G         E       A               Bm
  Such a cruel love is the kind that has wrought, oh, Billy

[Verse 3]
G      Bm     A           E
Billy, sadly, didn't live long
G
He had to stay there
           D          A
Because he wasn't too strong
     G                Bm
He's stepping out the door
        A         E
Blowing up like a bomb
G      Bm

 A spot of blue in the black of the eye of the Lord, oh Billy
