A wino we called Charley had a picture
G#
That he wore around his neck upon a chain
C# F# C#
But you couldn't see the face in Charley's picture
G# C#
Just long brown hair and a poem in the frame
C# F# C#

C# F# C#
And upon your name I'll swear until I'm worthy
G# C A
I forbid my eyes to look upon your face
