[Verse]
G C
I was sittin' in a honky tonk
G
In Texas drinkin' beer
C G
Tryin' to find some peace of mind
A D D
From a broken love affair
C G
When she walked right up and said, hey boy,
B Em
You sure look down to me
G C G
If you got the blues, maybe you could use,
Am7 D G
Some feminine company
[Chorus]
C G
And her eyes were green like few ain't seen
Am7 D G
And her hair was the color of the sun
C G
A Leo child with a Texas smile,
A7 D
I knew right then, I should run
C G
She said, I've lost a few just like you,
Am7 D G
You know I've felt the pain
C
But you can't stay down,
G Am7 D G
So dance this round and Charley is my name
[Solo]

[Verse]
G C G D G
Needless to say, I spent the night with Charley by my side
C G
The days to come were filled with fun,
A D D
As we took love for a ride
C G
She laughed and cried whenever I'd say,
B Em
Love is just a game
G C G
And through her tears she'd say,
Am7 D G G7
I'm real and Charley is my name
[Chorus]
C G
And her eyes were green like few ain't seen
Am7 D G
And her hair was the color of the sun
C G
A Leo child with a Texas smile,
A7 D D
I wish I never had run
C G
Now it's down a road that will never end,
Am7 D G
Somehow, it's not the same
C G
And through my tears I can see her smile
Am7 D G
Sayin', Charley is my name
[Outro]
C G
Yes, through my tears I can see her smile
Am7 D C G Am7 D G
Sayin', Charley is my name
