  LEFTY LEFT US LONELY

  Words and music by Boxcar Willie

  

  CAPO: 2nd Fret/KEY: A/:PLAY: G

  [G] Now Lefty came from Texas

  At least that what they [G7] say

  He [C] cut a record down in Dallas

  It really got 'im on his way

  [D7] You could hear 'im on ev'ry jukebox

  In ev'ry town and state

  Ev'ry DJ played - Always [G] Late.

  

  Now Lefty wasn't no saint

  He didn't claim to be

  He could sing a country song

  Send cold chills through me

  Like the son of a Saginaw fisherman

  He sang --- in Saginaw, Michigan

  

  If [C] you got money, honey, I've got the time

  When he [G] sang that song, well, he nearly blew my mind

  I'd walk for miles, cry or [D7] smile, for my [G] mama and [C] daddy

  And it [G] tears me up to [D7] see a grown man [G] cry.

  

  Lefty left us lonely

  He left before his time

  But I can see 'im singin' now to an angel

  At that Opry in the sky

  I'm just an old, old man a-lookin' for fun

  Why, oh! why, do you do me this way?

  

  If you got money, honey, I've got the time

  When he sang that song, well, he nearly blew my mind

  I'd walk for miles, cry or smile, for my mama and daddy

  Oh! why, oh! why, oh! why, do you do me this way?

  

  TAG: Yeah! Oh! why, oh! why, oh! why, do you do me this way?

  [P] Always Late.
