G Am D G 


verse 1 
N.C.             G 
Everybody's gone away 
                         Am 
Said they're movin' to L.A. 
                           D 
There's not a soul I know around 
                    G 
Everybody's leavin' town 

Some caught a freight, some caught a 
G 
plane 
                             Am 
Find the sunshine, Leave the rain 
                              D 
They said this town's a waste time 

I guess they're right, it's wasting 
G 
mine 


Chorus 
N.C.             G         Am 
Some gotta win, some gotta lose 
D                           G 
Good time Charlie's got the blues 


verse 2 
                                 G 
You know my heart keeps tellin' me, 
                            Am 
You?re not a kid at thirty-three. 
                                 D 
You play around you'll lose your wife. 

You play too long you'll lose your 
G 
life! 
                              G 
I?ve got my pills to ease the pain, 
                                Am 
Can?t find a friend to ease the rain. 
                                D 
I know I should try and settle down. 
                    G 
Everybody?s leaving town. 


Chorus 
N.C.             G         Am 
Some gotta win, some gotta lose 
D                           G 
Good time Charlie's got the blues 
D                           G 
Good time Charlie's got the blues
