    Something about his voice and the tenor or his songs are so perfect to me.
    I've only seen him live once, in the Los Angeles Silver Lake area. I drove two hours on a Duluth friend's recommendation, and was the first person to arrive at the locked club. The next person who showed up to stand and wait in the cold was a shy guy with a guitar case who told me the show was sold out. The shy guy was Charlie!... and he kindly got me in on the guest list. Thank you for that amazing show Charlie!

      He is a genuine spirit and a living legend. I've seen him in person at least 5x and every time I get goose bumps. He never plays a song the same way so seeing him live is a gift which I treasure.

      Got a similar story, me and my buddy went to his show in salt lake. Got there when the doors opened and we were the only people there for 20 minutes. Well us and a dude sitting in a chair in the very back. It was dark so I couldn’t tell right away who it was so we walked by to get a better look. And it was Charlie, just hanging out before the show. Didn’t know what to say to him so I just said hi and I’m excited to listen to him play and he gave a very genuine thanks and thanks for supporting him. Super cool guy.

    I love this man, and his music, and everything about the world it conjures up, of loneliness, imperfection, pain and broken beauty. I always end up crying, but I feel like...that's the way it has to be. (Charlie, is your hand okay??)

    America! Pay way more attention to Charlie than to some of your Opry stars!!! This man is real!. Saw him in Australia a few years ago and I swear to those not paying attention they may have thought he was a roadie tuning up. But then he played and sang and the crowd was awed. Such an amazing concert. As the concert progressed he almost became one with his guitar. Sometimes reality plays 2nd fiddle to "showmanship" but only if we let it. Please don't let it! Charlie is the real deal!

    IF My memory serves Me at all anymore, 2003, I was home on Leave from Japan OOFUCKINGRAH! I spent what I believe was Charlies' 3rd or Fourth show mesmerized by his real traditional singing voice. He was doing songs from Sailors and Sinner as well as 1922 Tracks. I have been a fan of fans of Charlie Parr since then. Thank You Charlie!!.

    Finding it hard to describe how much this song affects me. It is full of pathos, heart wrenching in the way it describes real life... great beauty in it's delivery. Thanks so much Charley for all your amazing songs. Can I ask what tuning it is in?

    There's someone out there, Out in the snow
    I think that I knew her, long time ago
    Homemade outfit, frayed cap and gloves
    She is a monument, a tribute cause
    It must be a bus stop, there through the snow
    The wind whips right through her thin winter coat
    She pulls a cart behind her, there are tracks in the snow
    That lead to her possessions, tied up just so
    I know that I knew her, but I can't say how
    Long time before anyway, the way she is now
    There's someone out there, but I can't make her out
    Salvation Army shoes on, sole all walked out
    I know that I knew her, we were in love
    Long time gone anyhow, there comes the bus
    Crowd pushes past her, no one looks twice
    She looks through her window, and I catch her eye
    She doesn't know me, She looks away
    The bus slowly disappears through the snowy haze

      @dervishspins 8 років тому +4

      +Joseph Grady The basic chords are G, D, F, and C. In the other part it just goes between A minor and C. With those basic chord formations he just does some ornamentation like hammer ons and pull offs. I find that if you just use the right chords and play around with them it doesn't have to be exactly correct and it still sounds nice.
