F              F         F
Sitting alone, sad, all alone,
F                      G7
Sitting in my cell all alone,
F                                      F
Just thinking of those good times gone by me,
G7                      F
Knowing that I once had a home.

F                                 F
For seven long years I've been in prison,
    G7                        F
For seven long more I have to stay;
          F                        F
Just for knocking a man down in an alley,
    G7                    F
And taking his gold watch away.


F              F         F
Sitting alone, sad, all alone,
F                      G7
Sitting in my cell all alone,
F                                      F
Just thinking of those good times gone by me,
G7                      F
Knowing that I once had a home.


F                              F
I once did have a sister and a brother,
   G7                         F
I wonder if they ever think of me?
  F                            F
I once did have a father and a mother
    G7                         F
Who lived in a cottage by the sea.

F              F         F
Sitting alone, sad, all alone,
F                      G7
Sitting in my cell all alone,
F                                      F
Just thinking of those good times gone by me,
G7                      F
Knowing that I once had a home.
