Tuning: Standard (Capo 3rd fret)

D5                G5              E5      A5        D5
I been hangin' round this town, in the low down rain
   D5                  G5                 E5    A5    D5     
Watchin' good time Charlie friend, is drivin' me insane
D5                 G5                  E5            A5     D5          
Down on shady Charlotte Street, the green lights lookin red
D5                    G5            E5      A5      D5
Wish I was back home on the farm , in my feather bed.

Chorus:
D5     G5                E5        A5               D5
Get myself a rockin' chair, to see if I could lose
       G5    E5     A5    E5     G5        A5             D5
These thin dimes, hard times hell on Church Street blues


D5                G5                 E5      A5        D5
Found myself a picker friend, who read yesterdays news
D5                G5              E5      A5       D5
Folded up page twenty-one, and stuck it in my shoes
D5             G5                E5        A5       D5
Gave a nickel to the poor, my good turn for the day
D5             G5                   E5      A5   D5     
Folded up my old bill fold, and threw it far away.

Chorus

Break: (Play Entire Verse progression)

D5                 G5                  E5           A5      D5
Get myself some guitar strings, the gold Black Diamond brand
D5                        G5             E5      A5          D5
I'd string up this old Martin box, and go and join some band
D5                 G5                E5       A5       D5
Guess I'll just stay right here, pick and sing a while
D5                  G5                 E5         A5       D5
Try to make me a little change, and give them folks a smile.

Chorus (X2)
