{ci: Verse 1}
Well you [F]dream of blondes and you [C]dream of beer
And [F]life gets terribly [C]stale
It's [F]dead in the morgue but it's [C]deader in here
There's [Am]no night out in the jail

{ci: Verse 2}
[C]The fellas I knew must all miss me now
I guess I better come [G]clean
I'm [F]sweating it out in the [C]boot me boys
An [Am]un-paying guest of the queen

{ci: Verse 3}
Well this [C]prison life sure suits me fine
I lead a decent [G]life
At [F]last my days are [C]organized
[Am]Outside it's nothing but strife

{ci: Chorus}
Well you [F]dream of blondes and you [C]dream of beer
And [F]life gets terribly [C]stale
It's [F]dead in the morgue but it's [C]deader in here
There's [Am]no night out in the jail
There's [Am]no night out in the [C]jail

{ci: Verse 4}
Me cobbers inside are just normal blokes
Who lead rather colorful [G]lives
Like [F]breaking and entering and [C]stealing cars
And [Am]just not supporting their wives

{ci: Verse 5}
Well [C]some blokes just like collecting things
And some like guzzling [G]beer
Well [F]some blokes just can't res[C]ist a fight
And [Am]some keep getting ideas

{ci: Chorus}

{ci: Verse 6}
I'm working the farm it's a healthy life
I jump outta bed with a [G]spring
The [F]tukka's not bad I get lots of [C]sleep
So [Am]who'd wanna change with the king?

{ci: Verse 7}
No [C]unemployment scares me now
And even when I am [G]tired
I [F]know I'm on a cushy [C]job
For [Am]sure I can never be fired

{ci: Chorus}

{ci: Verse 8}
Me creditors just don't annoy me now
Me wife has to get off my [G]back
Me [F]mother-in-law had to [C]drown herself
Who [Am]said the outlook is black?

{ci: Verse 9}
[C]Nothing now can worry me
Behind these prison [G]walls
[F]Just like a bull of [C]pedigree
I'm [Am]locked up at night in the stalls

{ci: Chorus}
Well you [F]dream of blondes and you [C]dream of beer
And [F]life gets terribly [C]stale
It's [F]dead in the morgue but it's [C]deader in here
There's [Am]no night out in the jail
There's [Am]no night out in the [C]jail
