in 1969
F C
Now everybody's leavin' town
F C
Since Charlie's is comin' down
CHORUS
F C
Some may lock the windows and close all the doors
E Am
Good Time Charlie's no more
F C
Some people fight, some people lose
E Am
Charlie's got the blues
F C
Charlie's got the blues
Repeat this progression throught the song...
Well their heart's keep tellin' lies
You can see it in their eyes
These cruel men keep runnin' round
Thats why Charlie's is comin' down
Some may lock the windows and close all the doors
Good Time Charlie's no more
Some people fight, some people lose
Charlie's got the blues
Charlie's got the blues
Lookin' out my bedroom door
I hear a rattlin' on the floor
The word has come around
That Good Time Charlie's is comin' down
Some may lock the windows and close all the doors
Good Time Charlie's no more
Some people fight, some people lose
Charlie's got the blues
Charlie's got the blues
This old world has got me down
All these places have hit the ground
So let's buy another round
Before Charlie's crumbles down
Some may lock the windows and close all the doors
Good Time Charlie's no more
Some people fight, some people lose
Charlie's got the blues
Charlie's got the blues
