Seems they're letting him out next year

He's behaving himself I hear

Governor Conway says it will be fine

Just as long as he can tow the line.
            Dm
So it's the same old story
       C
But it says here "Mum you're not to worry,
                                G (add 2)
'Cos some you lose and some you lose."

At this party he was on his own,
All he did was say he'd take her home
But it seems he didn't go straight there
'Twas on the porch she told him, Put your hand there
              Dm                   C
Yes it's that same old story, they told her mum she's not to
worry
   Cm               F9          D7              G Gsus G
If what she says is so, they'll never let him go.

G         Am7                 D7           G
  Never a word could be heard, not even the sound of a bird
           Am7        BmSinging it over again,    telling the same old story
C           D7              G7                   C
  Never the same as before, see the summer going out by the door.
                    D7                   G7                C Csus
And now that you've paid for those lies, get another dis - guise.

It's twenty years now since our kid came free

Oh I remember August '53

But it wasn't quite like they said

With that behind you you can't plan ahead.
              Dm
So it's that same old story
     C
They say you're free, so don't worry
Cm                   F9
What they said's not so
     D7             G
They never let you go!

G         Am7                 D7           G
  Never a word could be heard, not even the sound of a bird
           Am7        Dm
Singing it over again,    telling the same old story
C           D7              G7                   C
  Never the same as before, see the summer going out by the door.
