Emadd9 G6 C D Am |Emadd9 | C D |
Charlie Freak had but one thing to call his own
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
Emadd9 G6 C D Am |Emadd9 | C D |
Three weight ounce pure golden ring no precious stone
Cmaj7 D/C Bm7
Five nights without a bite
Am7 C/G B7sus4
No place to lay his head
Emadd9 G6 C D
And if nobody takes him in
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
Am |Emadd9 | C D|
He'll soon be dead
|Emadd9 | | | |
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
Emadd9 G6 C D Am |Emadd9 | C D |
On the street he spied my face I heard him hail
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
Emadd9 G6 C D Am |Emadd9 | C D |
In our plot of frozen space he told his tale
Cmaj7 D/C Bm7
Poor man, he showed his hand
Am B7sus4
So righteous was his need
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
Emadd9 G6 C D Am |Emadd9 | C D |
And me so wise I bought his prize For chicken feed
|Emadd9 | | | |
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
Emadd9 G6 C D Am |Emadd9 | C D |
Newfound cash soon begs to smash a state of mind
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
Emadd9 G6 C D Am |Emadd9 | C D |
Close inspection fast revealed his favorite kind
Cmaj7 D/C Bm7
Poor kid, he overdid
Am C/G B7sus4
Embraced the spreading haze
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
Emadd9 G6 C D Am |Emadd9 | C D |
And while he sighed his body died In fifteen ways
|Emadd9 | | | |
|Emadd9 | | | |
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
Emadd9 G6 C D Am |Emadd9 | C D |
When I heard I grabbed a cab to where he lay
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
Emadd9 G6 C D Am |Emadd9 | C D |
'Round his arm the plastic tag read D. O .A.
Cmaj7 D/C Bm7
Yes Jack, I gave it back
Am B7sus4
The ring I could not own
Emadd9 G6 C D Am Em
How come my friend I'll take your hand and lead you home
