Lyrics
Ev'rybody's gone away,
said they're movin' to L.
(C6)A. (C)There's not a soul I know (D7)around,
ev'rybody's leavin' (G)town.
Some caught a freight, some caught a plane;
find the sunshine, leave the (C6)rain.
(C)They said this town'll waste your (D7)time.
I guess they're right, it's wastin' (G)mine.
Some gotta win, some gotta (Cmaj7)lose,
(D7)goodtime Charlie's got the (G)blues,
(D7)goodtime Charlie's got the (G)blues.
Y' know my heart keeps tellin' me you're not a kid at (C6)thirtythree.
(C)Y' play around, y' lose your (D7)wife;
y' play too long, you lose your (G)life.
I got my pills t' ease the pain,
can't find a thing t' ease the (C)rain.
I'd love t' try and settle (D7)down,
but ev'rybody's leavin' (G)town.
Some gotta win, some gotta (Cmaj7)lose,
(D7)good time Charlie's got the (G)blues,
(D7)good time Charlie's got the (G)blues,
(D7)good time Charlie's got the (G)blues.
