Me And Charlie Talkin'

NOTE: The strumming pattern is 
tougher than it
      sounds and I have not included
 all the
      chords as there are passing 
chords using
      sus2 and sus4 throughout!  
This is not
      the only way to play this 
song.  It can
      be played in the open 
position!

(Verse 1)

G              C           
Me and Charlie boy used to go 
   G
walkin',
C                             
 sittin? in the woods behind my 
  G
house
C                            G
 When bein' lovers meant a stolen 
kiss,
             G                     
and holdin' hands with nobody else 
  D    Dsus4
around

(Verse 2)

G               C          
Charlie said he wanted to get 
   G
married,
C                                 
 but we were only ten so we?d have
    G
 to wait
C                                 
 He said we?d never let our love 
   G
run dry,
             D        G     C
like so many do these days

      C
So we treat our love like a firefly,
C             C    D  G     C  
 like it only gets to shine, 
    G           C
for a little while

C
 Catch it in a mason jar,
                          C   D    
with holes in the top and run like 
G    C           G
hell, to show it off
    F                           
Oh promises we made when we?d go 
  D
walkin?,
            F  D   C       G     
that?s just me and Charlie 
  C    G    C
talkin',

(Verse 3)

G              C                 
Charlie always said he?d like to 
G
leave here,
C                                 
turned eighteen and left our 
  G
sleepy town
C                              
Letters came and went and I kept 
   G
waiting,
    C               G             
for Charlie to come back, and 
                  D  Dsus4
bring the life he?d found,

(Verse 4)

     G             C              
It's funny how the time and 
   G
distance change you,
C                                 
 the road you take don?t always 
        G
lead you home
 C                            
You can start a love with good 
    G
intentions
                             G   C
and you'll look up and it?s gone

(Break)

(Verse 5)

G             C                  
Now an then I sometimes think of 
G
Charlie,
C                                 
how we thought we knew it all back
  G
 'en
    C                          G
Now I?d give anything to feel love,

from a child?s heart again
