[Bbm] [Eb] [Bbm] [Bb]
Charlie's town.
Ain't never been there before.
Well, he said, don't tell the baby.
I told y'all before.
Now, I don't [Fm] mind a [Eb] little time, [Bbm] or a little time to die,
[Eb] because what the [Bbm] things I've seen in [Eb] Charlie's town
[Bbm] is what Charlie's town to be.

So say you will, I hope you will.
If you ever see me around, I've been looking to him.
So from here, we start our plan.
Charlie, that's [Eb] evil.

If you let [Eb] out, [Bb] you'll be out of the game.
I'm [Db] [Bbm]
[Eb] [Bbm]
so mad.
