Kingston Trio 1962
A D
Let me tell you of a story 'bout a man named Charlie
A E7
On a tragic and fateful day.
A D
He put ten cents in his pocket, kissed his wife and family,
A E7 A
Went to ride on the M T A.
A D
But will he ever return? No he'll never return,
A E7
And his fate is still unlearned.
A D
He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston,
A E7 A
He's the man who never returned.
A D
Charlie handed in his dime at the Scully Square Station,
A E7
And he changed for Jamaica Plain.
A D
When he got there the conductor told him, "One more nickel!"
A E7 A
Charlie couldn't get off of that train.
A D
But will he ever return? No he'll never return,
A E7
And his fate is still unlearned.
A D
He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston,
A E7 A
He's the man who never returned.
A D
Now all night long Charlie rides through the stations,
A E7
Crying, "What will become of me?
A D
How can I afford to see my sister in Chelsey,
A E7 A
Or my brother in Roxbury?"
A E7 A
He's the man who never returned.
A D
Charlie's wife goes down to the Scully Square Station,
A E7
Every day at a quarter past two.
A D
And through the open window she hands Charlie his sandwich
A E7 A
As the train goes rumbling through.
A D
But will he ever return? No he'll never return,
A E7
And his fate is still unlearned.
A D
He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston,
A E7 A
He's the man who never returned.
A D
Now you citizens of Boston, don't you think it's a scandal,
A E7
How the people have to pay and pay?
A D
Fight the fare increase, vote for George O'Brien,
A E7 A
Get poor Charlie off the M T A!
A D
But will he ever return? No he'll never return,
A E7
And his fate is still unlearned.
A D
He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston,
A E7 A
He's the man who never returned.
A E7 A
He's the man who never returned.
A E7 A
He's the man who never returned.
