Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Lord I been hangin' out of town in that low down rain

Watchin' good time Charlie friend is drivin' me insane

Down on shady Charlotte Street all the green lights look red

I wish I was back home on the farm in my feather bed.

And I got myself a rockin' chair

To see if I could lose

This thin dime hard times

Hell on Church Street blues.

I found myself a picker friend that I registered James Earl

I folded up page twenty-one and stuck it in my shoe

They gave me a nickle to the poor my a good turn for the day

I folded up my own little folder threw it far away.

And I wish I had some guitar strings Old Black Diamond brand

I'd string up this old Martin box and go and join some band

But I guess I'll go and stay right here and pick and sing a while

Try to make me a little change and give them folks a smile.

Please correct if you find any mistakes

Best wishes
