D D G G Everybody's gone away, said they're moving to A ,
A A D D* there's not a soul I know around, everybody's leaving town.
D D Some caught a freight some caught a plane,
G G find the sunshine leave the rain;
A A they say this town'll waste your time,
D D must be? right? cause? it's wasting mine. [Chorus]

D D G G My heart keeps telling me there ain't no kid at thirty-three,
A A you play around you lose your wife,
D D* you play too long you lose your life.
D D I got my pills to ease the pain,
G G can't find a thing to ease the rain;
A A D D I'd like to try and settle down but everybody's leaving town. [End-Chorus]
Em A Some got to win some got to lose.
D A Good time Charlie's got the blues.
D D Good time Charlie's got the blues. [Other]
