Biography:
Steely Dan is an American jazz rock band which formed in 1972. The band was formed by Donald Fagen (vocals, keyboards) and Walter Becker (guitar, bass), who met in 1967 while both attended Bard College in Annandale-on-Hudson, New York, and began a songwriting partnership shortly thereafter.
Their music is characterized by dark, witty lyrical narratives, obscure lyrical allusions and complex, jazz-influenced instrumentation and chord sequences, overlying more ordinary popular song structures.

Em Am Em Am
Em G Am Em
Charlie Freak had but one thing to call his own
Em G Am Em
Three weight ounce pure golden ring no precious stone
C D
Five nights without a bite
Em Am G
No place to lay his head
Em G Am
And if nobody takes him in
D Em
He'll soon be dead
Em G Am Em
On the street he spied my face I heard him hail
Em G Am Em
In our plot of frozen space he told his tale
C D
Poor man, he showed his hand
Em Am G
So righteous was his need
Em G Am
And me so wise I bought his prize
For chicken feed
Em G Am Em
Newfound cash soon begs to smash a state of mind
Em G Am Em
Close inspection fast revealed his favorite kind
C D
Poor kid, he overdid
Em Am G
Embraced the spreading haze
And while he sighed his body died
In fifteen ways
Em G Am Em
When I heard I grabbed a cab to where he lay
Em G Am Em
'Round his arm the plastic tag read D.O.A.
C D
Yes Jack, I gave it back
Em Am G
The ring I could not own
Em G Am
Now come my friend I'll take your hand
D Em
And lead you home
