D G Well, let me tell you of the story of a man named Charlie D A7 On a tragic and fateful day D G He put ten cents in his pocket, kissed his wife and family D A7 D Went to ride on the M-T-A [Chorus] D Well, did he ever return? G D A7 No he never returned and his fate is still unlearned (What a pity) D G He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston D A D And he's the man who never returned. [Verse] D G Charlie handed in his dime at the Kendall Square station D A7 And he changed for Jamaica Plain D G When he got there the conductor told him, "One more nickel" D A7 D Charlie couldn't get off of that train! [Chorus] D Well, did he ever return? G D A7 No he never returned and his fate is still unlearned (Poor Old Charlie) D G He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston D A D And he's the man who never returned. [Verse] D G Now, all night long Charlie rides through the stations D A7 Crying, "What will become of me? D G How can I afford to see my sister in Chelsea D A7 D Or my cousin in Roxbury?" [Chorus] D Well, did he ever return? G D A7 No he never returned and his fate is still unlearned (Shame and Scandal) D G He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston D A D And he's the man who never returned. [Verse] D G Charlie's wife goes down to the Scollay Square station D A7 Every day at quarter past two D G And through the open window she hands Charlie a sandwich D A7 D As the train comes rumbling through! [Chorus] D Well, did he ever return? G D A7 No he never returned and his fate is still unlearned (He may ride forever) D G He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston D A D And he's the man who never returned. [Verse] Pick it Davey (Kinda hurts my fingers) D G Now, you citizens of Boston, don't you think it's a scandal D A7 How the people have to pay and pay? D G Fight the fare increase, vote for George O'Brian! D A7 D Get poor Charlie off the MTA! D Or else he'll never return? G D A7 No he never returned and his fate is still unlearned (He may ride forever) D G He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston D A D And he's the man who never returned. (Just like Paul Revere) D G He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston D A D And he's the man who never returned. D A D He's the man who never returned! D A D He's the man who never returned! D A D He's the man who never returned!
