[Intro]
Dm Dm Am Gm
Dm Dm Am Gm
[Verse]
Dm
Five to five cell closing time and
Davey’s at wit's end
Am
No, he hasn't smiled for days now,
Gm
seems halfway around the bend
Dm
Got caught up in the neighbourhood
where the earnings came from crime
Am
The chickens came and roosted,
Gm
the judge declared his
Dm Am Gm
punishment was time
Dm
Six months in he’s wearing thin as
his head rests on the door
Am
It's the lad's third
stint inside this yard,
Gm
you know he's seen it all before
Dm
No self-refine, no guiding lines,
been around too long to miss them
Am
Left to reoffend, no friends in the
Gm
joke of the justice system
[Chorus]
Dm C
Does it really work, this
Gm A#
level of sheer confron-tation
Dm C
Would it be such a cir-cus if
Gm A#
you tried to edu-cate them
Dm C
But you gave him a number
Gm A#
and took away his name
Dm C/E
Nothing to say if you play it this way,
F Gm Dm
just a-nother day in the life of Davey Kane
[Verse]
Dm
Seven degrees way overseas and
Joey’s got it different
Am
Had a helping hand to leave past lands and
Gm
he's made a strong commitment
Dm
Found touch with his family,
even earned himself a trade
Am
It's a-mazing just how far
Gm
he's come with a little effort made
Dm
Eight times Davey's asked for
help but it's not the same situation
Am Gm
Un-til he's free, hostility is the rehabilitation
Dm
Push him down so far and
he might fail to see regret
Am
If an animal’s what you're breeding son,
Gm
an animal is what you'll get
[Chorus]
Dm C
Does it really work, this
Gm A#
level of sheer confron-tation
Dm C
Would it be such a cir-cus if
Gm A#
you tried to edu-cate them
Dm C
But you gave him a number and
Gm A#
took away his name
Dm C/E
Nothing to say if you play it this way,
F Gm Dm
just a-nother day in the life of Davey Kane
[Solo]
Dm Dm Am Gm
Dm Dm Am Gm
[Outro]
Dm
He's not the best of people,
but it ain't as if he kills them
Am
He’s took nobody's dignity and
Gm
he bears no threat to children
Dm
If he won't conform then do your worst,
even I can't make a case
Am
But at least give half a go to those
Gm Dm
who intend to rejoin the rat race
