Good Time Charlie`s Got the Blues - Classic Country Song

Good Time Charlie`s Got the Blues is a Classic Country Song written by Danny O` Keefe and covered by many different country musicians. I like the Kittenclaws version best. I sing and play it on acoustic guitar fingerpicking style. I`ll post the lyrics in case you want to sing along.

Good Time Charlie’s Got The Blues Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Everybody's gone away
Said they're movin' to LA
There's not a soul I know around
Everybody's leavin' town

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

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

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

[Verse 4]
I got my pills to ease the pain
Can't find a thing to ease the rain
I'd love to try and settle down
But everybody's leavin' town

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