Capo on 3:rd fret
C F Am G C 
F Em Am G F G C


[ C ] Lord I been hangin' [ F ] out of town [ Am ] in that [ G ] low down [ C ] rain
Watchin' good time [ F ] Charlie friend is [ Am ] drivin' [ G ] me [ C ] insane
D?wn on shady [ F ] Charlotte Street [ Am ] all the green lights [ G ] look [ C ] red
I wish I was back [ F ] home on the [ Am ] farm in my [ G ] feather [ C ] bed.


And I [ C ] got myself a [ F ] rockin' chair
To [ Am ] see if [ G ] I could [ C ] lose
This [ F ] thin [ Em ] dime [ Am ] hard [ G ] times
[ F ] Hell on [ G ]  Church Street [ C ] blues.

I found myself a picker friend that I registered James Earl
I folded up page twenty-one and stuck it in my shoe
They gave me a nickle to the poor my a good turn for the day
I folded up my own little folder threw it far away.

And I wish I had some guitar strings Old Black Diamond brand
I'd string up this old Martin box and go and join some band
But I guess I'll go and stay right here and pick and sing a while
Try to make me a little change and give them folks a smile.
