Em Am Em Am
Em G Am Em Charlie Freak had but one thing to call his own
Em G Am Em Three weight ounce pure golden ring no precious stone
C D Five nights without a bite
Em Am G No place to lay his head
Em G Am And if nobody takes him in
D EmHe'll soon be dead
Em G Am Em On the street he spied my face I heard him hail
Em G Am Em In our plot of frozen space he told his tale
C D Poor man, he showed his hand
Em Am G So righteous was his need
Em G Am And me so wise I bought his prize
For chicken feed
Em G Am Em Newfound cash soon begs to smash a state of mind
Em G Am Em Close inspection fast revealed his favorite kind
C D Poor kid, he overdid
Em Am G Embraced the spreading haze
And while he sighed his body died In fifteen ways
Em G Am Em When I heard I grabbed a cab to where he lay
Em G Am Em 'Round his arm the plastic tag read D.O.A.
C D Yes Jack, I gave it back
Em Am G The ring I could not own
Em G Am Now come my friend I'll take your hand
D EmAnd lead you home
