Tony Rice - Church St. Blues guitar chord

C F G7 C

Lord I’ve been hanging out of town, in that low down rain

C F G7 C

Watching good time Charlie friend, whos’ driving me insane

C F G7 C

Down on shady Charlotte Street, the green lights look red

C F G7 C

Wish I was back home on the farm, in my feather bed

CH

C F C G7 C

Get myself a rocking chair, to see if I could lose

F G7 F C

Them thin dime, hard time, hello Church St.Blues

C F G7 C

Found myself a picker friend, to read yesterdays news

C F G7 C

Folded up page 21 and stuck it in my shoes

C F G7 C

Gave them nickels to the poor, my good turn for the day

C F G7 C

Folded up my old bill-fold and threw it far away

CH

F

And I got myself………..

C F G7

Lord I wish I had some guitar strings, old Black Diamond

C

brand

C F G7 C

I’d string up this old Martin box and go and join some band

C F C G7

But I guess I’m gonna stay right here, just pick and sing

C

awhile

C F G7 C

Try to make me a good change and give them folks a smile

CH

C F

And get myself…………….
