G
Baby Grace is the victim,
G
She was 14 years of age,
G
And the wheels are turning, turning,
G
For the finger points at me.
Am
(All's well)
Am
But I have not been to Oxford Town.
Am
(All's well)
Am
No I have not been to Oxford Town.


[CHORUS]

C/G      G
Toll the bell,
C/G             G
Pay the private eye,
G
All's well,
G
20th century dies.


[VERSE 2]

G
And the prison priests are decent,
G
My attorney seems sincere,
G
I fear my days are numbered,
G
Lord get me out of here.
Am
(All's well)
Am
But I have not been to Oxford Town.
Am
(All's well)
Am
But I have not been to Oxford Town.

        This is your shadow on my wall,
F/G C/G
        This is my flesh and blood,
C/G
This is what I could've been.


[VERSE 3]

G
And the wheels are turning and turning,
G
As the 20th century dies,
G
If I had not ripped the fabric,
G
If time had not stood still,
G
If I had not met Ramona,
G
If I'd only paid my bill.
Am
(All's well)
Am
But I have not been to Oxford Town.
Am
(All's well)
Am
But I have not been to Oxford Town.

C/G D/G
       This is my bunk with two sheets,
                       F/G   C/G
This is my food though foul,
C/G
This is what I could have been.


[CHORUS]
