Intro.: |(D) |(D) |(G) |(G) | x 2

D             G
He was selling an old gui- tar and I bought it
D         G
I saw her smiling picture in his wallet
D                  G
He said, "I call her 'baby' but her Christian name is Charlotte"
D         G
(Do-do-do, do-do) (do-do-do)

D              G
She spends her days downtown hooked up to some machine
D                   G
They say time can heal but time can't heal everything
D                  G
The Lord's gonna take her home real soon flying on angel's wings
D         G
(Do-do-do, do-do) (do-do-do)

(Chorus 1)
G              D
I'm gonna cry right now and that's ok
G          D
We're all gonna die someday
Em             G
You won't remember a single word I'm trying to say
D         G
(Do-do-do, do-do) (do-do-do)

(Chorus-2)
G                 D
It's all a grand illusion when you think you're in control
G                D
She's all I got left of selling everything I own
      Em             G
There's no good in a goodbye, it's the beginning of the end
A                G        D
I left some songs in the guitar, sing 'em good my friend

D     G/D    D     G/D
(Do-do-do) Oh, yeah, (do-do-do, do-do-do)

D              G/D
This old guitar and case has been in a million bars
    D                     G/D
Been a fools disciple miss dance recitals and the birth of every child
D           G/D
Honestly honesty never goes out of style, so sing the pain my friend
D         G
(Do-do-do, do-do) (do-do-do)

D               G
So the world she's her as just desperate grey and old
D              G
All I see is my true love my heart my life my soul
  D                      G
At least for one more night, I got a beautiful wrinkled hand to hold
              D         G
So sing the truth my friend (Do-do-do, do-do) (do-do-do)

(Chorus 1)
G              D
I'm gonna cry right now and that's ok
G          D
We're all gonna die someday
Em             G
You won't remember a single word I'm trying to say
D         G
(Do-do-do, do-do) (do-do-do)

(Chorus-2)
G                 D
It's all a grand illusion when you think you're in control
G                D
She's all I got left of selling everything I own
      Em             G
There's no good in a goodbye, it's the beginning of the end
A                G        D
I left some songs in the guitar, sing 'em good my friend

D             G
I'm gonna sing the pain a- way
D               G
I'm gonna sing the truth, and then
D            G     D   G
I'm gonna sing em' good, for my old friend

    G                    D
Well I cried when I got in that truck so I put on my shades
    G              D
Looked up at the crimson sky as the sun began to fade
      Em             G
And for the first time in a long time I swear I think I prayed
D             G
I'm gonna sing the pain a- way
D               G
I'm gonna sing the truth, and then
D            G     D
I'm gonna sing em' good, for my old friend
G/D     D
Yeah, my old friend -----
