D G Let me tell you a story bout' a man named Charlie D A on that tragic yet faithful day D G he put ten cents in his pocket, Kissed his wife and family D A D went to ride on the M.T.A. Charlie handed in his dime At the Kendall Square Station And he changed for Jamaica Plain When he got there the conductor told him, "One more nickel." Charlie could not get off that train. Chorus D G D A did he ever return, NO he never returned and his fate is still unlearned D G D A D he may ride for ever neath the streets of Boston, he's the man who never returned

(CHORDS ARE THE SAME THROUGH THE WHOLE SONG) Second verse Now all night long Charlie rides through the station Crying "What will become of me? How can I afford to see My sister in Chelsea Or my cousin in Roxbury?" Charlie's wife goes down To the Scollay Square station Every day at quarter past two And through the open window She hands Charlie a sandwich As the train comes rumblin' through. Chorus repeat last line: D A D he's the man who never returned End on single strum of last D Some like to play this wit a chorus between two part verses- do what you like and have fun
