Skinhead on the MBTA Lyrics

Tabber: clark@theoddmenout.com
*= mute chord
()= bass only note
Intro: x6
Verse 1:
Now let me tell you a story of a big ole' skinhead
On a tragic and fateful day
He put 10 cents in his pocket kicked his wife and family
And went to ride on the M.B.T.A
Chorus:
Did he ever return? No, he never returned, and his fate is still unknown
He will ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston
He's the skinhead who never returned...
Verse 2:
Skinhead goes down to the Kendall Sq. Station
And he changes for Jamaica Plain,
The conductor says skinhead I need a nickel,
Skinhead punches him in the brain
Verse 3:
Now all night long skinhead drives through the station
Thinking what can I go and see
Can't afford to buy crack in Chelsea or a bundle in Roxbury
Verse 4:
Skinhead's wife goes to the Scully Square Station
Everyday at quarter past two,
And through the open window she hands skinhead a grenade
As the train comes a rumbling through
Solo:
B-------------10b--8-6-------------------|
D--7b------7--------------7b------7--9v--|
B-------------10b--8-6-------------------|
D--7b------7--------------7b-----9b--10v-|
Verse 5:
Now you citizens of Boston don't you think its a scandal
How the skinhead stole the train?
What's the big ****in' deal, he'll work for beer
Let the skinhead drive the train
Skinhead that never returned x3
(now they sing the chorus drunk in the bar)
