Dmaj7                    D
Stuck inside these four walls
G6                 G6 
Sent inside forever
Dmaj7           Dmaj9 G
Never seeing no one  nice again
A    G D  Gm6   G D  Gm6   Dmaj7  Gm6
Like you, mama, you, mama, you

Am
If I ever get out of here
D
Thought of giving it all away
Am
To a registered charity
D                               Am
All I need is a pint a day if I ever get out of here
(If we ever get out of here)

           C                    Fmaj7
Well, the rain exploded with a mighty crash
                     C
As we fell into the sun
C                              Fmaj7
And the first one said to the second one there
                      Em
I hope you're having fun

Chorus:
G            C   Em   C       Am
Band on the run, band on the run
         F              C
And the jailer man and Sailor Sam
       F            Fmaj7
Were searching everyone
         C
For the band on the run, band on the run
Band on the run, band on the run

Well, the undertaker drew a heavy sigh
Seeing no one else had come
And a bell was ringing in the village square
For the rabbits on the run

Chorus:
Band on the run, band on the run
And the jailer man and Sailor Sam
Were searching everyone
For the band on the run, band on the run
Band on the run, band on the run

Yeah the band on the run, band on the run
And the jailer man and Sailor Sam
Were searching everyone
For the band on the run, band on the run
Band on the run, band on the run

Well the night was falling as the desert world
Began to settle down
In the town they're searching for us everywhere
But we never will be found

Chorus:
Band on the run, band on the run
And the county judge who held a grudge
Will search for evermore
For the band on the run, band on the run
Band on the run, band on the run
