[Verse 1]
            E     D
Everybody's goin' away
                               G
Said they're gone this time to stay
                           A
There's not a soul I know around
                    D
Everybody's leavin' town

[Verse 2]
                                     D
Some caught a freight, some caught a plane
                             G
Find the sunshine, leave the rain
                                 A
They said this town's a waste of time
                                    D
I guess they're right, it's wastin' mine


[Chorus]
                           G      A
Some gotta win, some gotta lose
                            D     A
Good time Charlie's got the blues
                            D     A
Good time Charlie's got the blues

[Bridge]

[Verse 3]
                               D
Ya know my heart keeps tellin' me
                            G
"You're not a kid at thirty-three"
                              A
"Ya play around, ya lose your wife"
                                 D
"Ya play too long, you lose your life"

[Verse 4]
                               D
I walk the streets to ease the pain
                             G
Won't do a thing to ease the rain
                         A    hold
I'd love to try and settle down
                        D
But everybody's leavin' town


[Chorus]
                           G      A
Some gotta win, some gotta lose
                            D     A
Good time Charlie's got the blues
                            D     A
Good time Charlie's got the blues
                            D     A
Good time Charlie's got the blues
