Verse 1: 
D
Well if you're ever in Austin Texas 
  G                       D
A little run down on your sole 
    G                                 D
I'm gonna tell you the name of an old man to see 
          E7                         A
I'm gonna tell you right where to go  
     D
He's working in Capitol Saddlery 
     G                         D
He's sewing in the back of the place  
            G                       D
His name is Charlie Dunn the little frail one 
         A                      D
With the smile and the leathery face 

Chorus: 
        G                     D
Charlie Dunn, he's the one to see 
        A                             D    D7
Charlie done the boots that are on my feet  
         G                              D
It makes Charlie real pleased to see me walkin in these 
        A                     D
Charlie Dunn, he's the one to see 

Verse 2: 
D
Charlie's been makin boots over there 
        G                    D
He says about fifty some odd years 
    G                           D
And once you wear a pair of his hand-mades 
            E7                         A
Boy, you'll never wear no store-bought pair 
D
Charlie can tell what's wrong with your feet 
        G                    D
Just by feelin' 'em with his hands 
    G                         D
And he can take a look at the boots you wear 
           A                    D
And know a whole lot about you, man 

Repeat chorus: 

Bridge: 
        Bm
And ol' Buck's up front he's countin' up his gold 
A
Charlie's in the back patchin' up the soles 
        Bm
All the people comin' in smilin' at him  
     A                    A7
They all wonder how's ol' Charlie been 
G                           A                  D   Bm
Buck's makin' change but he never ever sees no one  
       G                  A                      D
And he never understood a good thing ol' Charlie done 

Instrumental 

Verse 3: 
D
Charlie's never had his name on a sign 
   G                       D
He don't put a mark in the boot 
   G                  D
He just hopes you can remember him 
          E7                    A
'Bout the same way that he does you 
   D
He keeps your measurements in a little book 
           G                      D
So you can order more boots later on 
     G                    D
Well I'm writin' down ol' Charlie's size 
       A               D
 I'm a makin' him up a song 

Repeat chorus: 
G                      A                  D   Bm
Buck's up front but he never ever sees no one  
       G                  A                      D
And he never understood a good thing ol' Charlie done
