Biography:
Harvey Andrews (born Harvey John Andrews, May 7, 1943 in Birmingham) is an English singer, songwriter, and poet.
From 1964, Andrews supported his nascent career as a singer/songwriter by working as a schoolteacher, before becoming a full-time professional musician in 1966.
Andrews has produced 15 successful albums singing his own songs, many of which have also been recorded by other artists.
His emotive The Soldier transmits the same quiet desperation of a soldier about to die "in conflict" as Wilfred Owen's Dulce Et Decorum Est

Harvey Andrews - The Role You Choose
[Intro]
G D Em Am G D
[Verse 1]
G Em
When you live your life as Charlie Brown
C G Am
You sometimes smile you mostly frown
G Em C
You sometimes float you mostly drown
Am D
'Cause you are Charlie Brown
[Verse 2]
G Em
When you miss the chances, you miss the clues
C G Am
You know just how it feels to lose
G Em D C
And you know that is the role you choose
Am G
Then you are Charlie Brown
[Chorus]
C D G Em C
Yes, you are Charlie Brown, my friend
D G
You are Charlie Brown
C D G Em
And though you try to fly it right
C G D
Still your kite comes down
[Verse 3]
G Em
When you live your life as Charlie Brown

You play King Lear, they call you clown
G Em C
They say there's one in every town
Am D
Who's name is Charlie Brown
[Verse 4]
G Em
When you pitch that ball it comes right back
C G Am
So you defend while they attack
G Em D C
Then you find a quiet place to crack
Am G
'Cause you are Charlie Brown
