INTRO:
D  D
 
VERSE:
           D
If you're ever in Austin, Texas
   G                       D
A little run down on your sole
 
Tell you the name of a man to see
      E                      A
I'ma tell you right where to go now
 
      D
He's working in Capitol Saddlery
          G                         D
And he's sewing in the back of the place
 
His name is Charlie Dunn, the little frail one
          A                D
With the smilin' 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
And it made Charlie real pleased to see me walkin' with ease
         A                     D
Charlie Dunn, he's the one to see
 
 
VERSE:
          D
And now, Charlie was makin' boots over there
          G                  D
He says, fifty some-odd years
 
And once you wear a pair of these hand-made boots
                 E                          A
You know you'll never touch a store-bought pair
 
      D
Well Charlie can tell what's wrong with your feet
         G                         D
Just by feeling them with his hands
 
And he can take a look at the boots you wear
            A                   D
And know a whole lot about you 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
And it made Charlie real pleased to see me walkin' with ease
         A                     D
Charlie Dunn, he's the one to see
 
 
BREAK:
          Bm
Now, ol' Buck's up front, countin' up his gold
 A
Charlie in the back patchin' up the soles
        Bm
Of the people comin' in, smilin' at him
      E             A
They all wanna how Charlie's been
 
 G                         A            D Bm
Buck is makin' change, he never see no one
        G                  A                  D
And he never understood a good thing Charlie done
 
 
INSTRUMENTAL:
G  A  D  Bm  G  A  D  D
 
 
VERSE:
      D
Now, Charlie never had his name on the sign
    G                            D
He doesn't put a mark in his boot
 
He just hopes that you'll remember him
     E                A
The same way he does you
 
               D
He keeps your measurements in a little book he's got
            G                     D
So you can order more boots later on
 
Yeah, I must've taken down Ol' Charlie's size
            A                  D
'Cause I'm makin' him up this 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 made Charlie very pleased to see me walkin' with ease
         A                     D
Charlie Dunn, he's the one to see
 
 G                        A         D     Bm
Buck's makin' change, he never sees no one
        G                    A                  D  D
And he never understood the good thing Charlie done
