Misc Originals – Charlie Shank - Charleys Song (Guitar)

C             F            C          G
Just North of Globe by the Salt River Canyon,

C        F           Am         G
Rise's a mountain of timber and game.

C        F              C           G
It's God Creation, It's Natures Own Lookout,

   C            F       Am            C
It rises toward Heaven, Aztec Is It's name.

          C                Am           C           Am
Where the cold streams are Flowing, the soft breeze blowing,

    C          Am      G         C
The cliffs and Canyons Beckon To Me.

          C            Am         C            Am
There's a white tail a running, A black bear a sunning and the

C             Am             G         C
Squirrels are playing in the tall Pine Trees.

    C           F       C            G
Now I'm growing old, my bones are so weary,

C          F         Am         G
but out of life I've Gotten the best.

   C        F        C          G
So dig me a grave on top of the Mountain

    C           F       Am       C
and lay my poor body On Aztec to rest.

          C                Am           C           Am
Where the cold streams are Flowing, the soft breeze blowing,

    C          Am      G         C
The cliffs and Canyons Beckon To Me.

          C            Am         C            Am
There's a white tail a running, A black bear a sunning and the

C             Am             G         C
Squirrels are playing in the tall Pine Trees.
