Dear Mr. Charles Schultz, 1973
    Am                                                   G
I'm feeding rolls of quarters in the pay television, and trying to make sense of today
G                                             F
Two missed connections in the Amtrak station, still days away from my final destination
Am                                                             G
When I see the city lights I'll know I'll made the finish line
G                  F
My girl Lucy waits for me to bend my knee
        Am                                                      G
But the diamond doesn't shine and I can barely make the payments on our telephone ring
G                   F
I took a second job watching the clock change hands
    Am                                           G                      F   Am
The seven's disappointed and me I'm not committed to be a numbers man
G                      F
Dear Mr. Charles Brown, I make the rent on time
     Am                                                  G
It's true I'm undecided and the season has expired, I'll never be the man she desires
G                                               F
Two missed connections in the Amtrak station, I walked out the door without delay or hesitation
Am                                                 G
Somebody shouted your name and I swear they yelled fire
G                                 F
Charles, my best is not enough, today I'm finally giving up
    Am                                               G
Oh, Lucy I love you, my plane isn't landing, they're telling me my phone is tapped
G                          F
It's going down to the wire, I'm collecting the rain
         Am                                           G
And I'll use it for payment to catch another downtown train
