Danny Okeefe - Good Time Charlies Got The Blues Chords

I looked everywhere for the lyrics to this tune and finally someone sent
them to me.  It is a great tune played with a little steady bass strum and
easy finger-picking.
As the person who sent the lyrics said of the refrain...There's sort of a
universal truth there somewhere.


					Good Time Charlie's Got the Blues
							By
						   Danny O'keefe

       G
Everybody's gone away
                                   C
I hear they're moving to LA
                                      D7
There ain't a soul I know around
                              G
Everybody'l leaving town


Some caught a freight, some took a plane
Catch the sunshine, leave the rain
They say this town'll waste your time
I guess they know, it's wasting mine

Refrain:
                               G
	Some gotta win
		       C D7
	Some gotta lose
				       G
	Good time Charlie's got the blues

My crazy heart keeps telling me
You're not a kid at thirty-three
Play around you lose your wife
Play too long you lose your life

I've got my pills to ease the pain
Ain't found nothing to ease the rain
Someday I'd like to settle down
But everybody's leaving town


Since I can't figure out how to draw the tab
The whole song is a finger picking strum from G (Alternating the E and D
strings for the bass line)
Hammering on the D and B strings  (to  Am7 moving your bass line up to the
Dand G strings)
Moving your Am7 up 2 frets adding the B string between beats with the  Dand
G strings
Hammering on back at Am7 with the D and B strings (bass still on the D&G
strings)
Back to G and the original bass line.

You can follow this strum (if you can follow it at all) to the last line of
both the verses and the refrain
where it goes to D7 and the Gand B strings slide up 2 frets and back down
to D7
play the Gstring open
Hammer on the D
and Back to The original bass strum at G
I make it sound harder than it is.  It is a basic finger picking strum.
