Charlie Dunn
Jerry Jeff Walker
[Verse 1]
D
Well if you're ever in Austin Texas
G D
A little run down on your sole
G D
I'm gonna tell you the name of an old man to see
E7 A
I'm gonna tell you right where to go.
D
He's working in Capitol Saddlery
G D
He's sewing in the back of the place
G D
His name is Charlie Dunn the little frail one
A D
With the smile and the leathery face.
[Chorus]
G D
Charlie Dunn, he's the one to see
A D D7
Charlie done the boots that are on my feet.
G D
It makes Charlie real pleased to see me walkin' in these
A D
Charlie Dunn, he's the one to see.
[Verse 2]
D
Charlie's been makin' boots over there
G D
He says 'bout fifty some odd years.
G D
And once you wear a pair of his hand-mades boy,
E7 A
you'll never wear no store-bought pair.
D
Charlie can tell what's wrong with your feet
G D
Just by feelin' 'em with his hands.
G D
And he can take a look at the boots you wear
A D
And know a whole lot about the man.
[Chorus]
G D
Charlie Dunn, he's the one to see
A D D7
Charlie done the boots that are on my feet.
G D
It makes Charlie real pleased to see me walkin' in these
A D
Charlie Dunn, he's the one to see.
[Bridge]
Bm
And ol' Buck's up front he's countin' up his gold
A
Charlie's in the back patchin' up the soles
Bm
All the people comin' in smilin' at him
A A7
They all wonder how's ol' Charlie been.
G A D Bm
Buck's makin' change but he never ever sees no one
G A D
And he never understood a good thing ol' Charlie done.
[Instrumental]
[Verse 3]
D
Charlie's never had his name on a sign
G D
He don't put a mark in the boot.
G D
He just hopes you can remember him
E7 A
'Bout the same way that he does you.
D
He keeps your measurements in a lit-tle book
G D
So you can order more boots later on.
G D
Well I'm writin' down ol' Charlie's size
A D
I'm a makin' him up a song.
[Chorus]
G D
Charlie Dunn, he's the one to see
A D D7
Charlie done the boots that are on my feet.
G D
It makes Charlie real pleased to see me walkin' in these
A D
Charlie Dunn, he's the one to see.
