     A
On a street corner in Pittsburgh, PA
          D
There's a tough Irish boy with no dreams
                       A
But to be King for one day
         A
And he's schooled by the older ones
                                    A
With lessons and the conduct of the streets
           E                D
He's got a mean right cross 
                  A 
And a devastating left hook

          
            A
He likes to drink and he likes to fight 
         D
He likes poppin' pills and Du-Op 
                                A
and the boulevard on a Saturday night 
         D
And he's going no where fast
                                 A
you know he's happy just staying alive 
            E               D
But you can always count on Charlie 
                          A
To be there if you needed him

     
     A
In a courtroom on a December's day
    D
The judge said look here son 

If you wanna play 
                     A
You're gonna have to pay
          D
See these rules that you life by 
                           A
Don't exist in a civilized world. 
     E                D           A
So I offer you prison, or Vietnam. 


         A
You know Charlie, he's kinda crazy 
        D
He just stood there looked at me,
                                     A
Looked at the judge, straight in the eyes 
         D
Said I'd love to fight your honor 
                                 A
And you know I've got nothing to lose
   E                  D        A
So send me off to war, I don't mind.


   A
He spent two years 

Learning weapons of death
      D
And a year in the jungle 
                                     A
Like an animal where it's kill or be killed
        D     
And the right amount of heroin 
                           A
Really seems the quiet the bombs
        E         D                   A
Back in Pittsburgh, things are rather calm


    A
Now Charlie, he is my friend
          D
Taught me how to hold my head up
                           A
Told me soon that I'd be a man
          D
Says that Agent Orange is calling 
                                   A
And the doctors have done all they can
     E                  D
Well Charlie, I'm gonna miss you 
             A
after you're gone
     E                  D
Well Charlie, I'm gonna miss you 
             A
after you're gone
     E                  D
Well Charlie, I'm gonna miss you 
             A
after you're gone
