So many originals... so I started with a cover

Interesting cover, though.  Nice twist on the chord progression.  I wonder if Elton/Bernie ever heard it?  Charlie's vocals are stellar.

El Ceritto place is a top 10 fav song of mine. Also a cover. Lots of respect from Chesney for Charlie’s version

That’s my very favorite of Charlie’s songs, even though he didn’t write it. I always felt like his version and Kenny Chesney’s version were almost two different songs. 
Charlie’s feels like he’s telling you a story, and Kenny’s feels like he’s singing to you.

Charlie's all the way and I like Chesney's music... a lot (hey it's great boat/lake music).

After reading Bernie's autobiography, I would bet he has heard it.   Dude is all about Texas and the old West.
