Christmas Card From A Hooker In Minneapolis

G                    B7
hey charlie I'm pregnant
C9             C7        C9
and living on the 9th street
           G                B7
right above a dirty bookstore
C9             C7
off euclid avenue
G            B7
and I stopped takin' dope
C9              C7
and I quit drinkin' whiskey
      Em7                   Em6
and my old man plays the trombone
       C9                      G
and works out at the track
 G              B7
and he says that he loves me
C7
even though it's not his baby
G               B7
and he says that he'll raise him up
  C9           G
like he would his own son
           B7
and he gave me a ring
   Em7        Em6
that was worn by his mother
   C9                 C
and he takes me out dancin'
    C9           G     
every Saturday night
G              B7
and hey charlie I think about you
   C9
every time I pass a fillin' station
G               B7
on account of all the grease
C9                     G
you used to wear in your hair
G    B7
and I still have that record
Em7               Em6
of Little anthony & the Imperials
C7                C9
but someone stole my record player
  D7                G  
now how do you like that?
   G          B7
hey charlie I almost went crazy
C9                           C7
after Mario got busted
   G          B7
so I went back to Omaha to
C7                G
live with my folks
Em7            Em6
but everyone I used to know
 C7               C9
was either dead or in prison
 
G                         B7
so I came back to Minneapolis
C9                         G
this time I think I'm gonna stay
 
G                           B7
hey charlie I think I'm happy
  C9                      C
for the first time since my accident
G                          B7
and I wish I had all the money
     C9               G
that we used to spend on dope
G                        B7
I'd buy me a used car lot
  Em7              Em6
and I wouldn't sell any of em
      C9
I'd just drive a different car
D11         C9              D11
every day, dependin' on how I feel
   
 
G              B7
hey charlie for chrissakes
C9
do you want to know the truth of it?
G         B7
I don't have a husband
C9         
he don't play the trombone
G        B7
and I need to borrow money
Em7
to pay this lawyer
  G
charlie, hey
C9                C7
I'll be eligible for parole
   D7     G
come Valentine's day
