Charlie Dunn
by Jerry Jeff Walker

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