(Take These) Chains

I move away it don't do me no good

Three thousand miles don't help like I thought it would.

Help me, I'm beggin' you please.

You've got the power down on my knees

Give me some kind of life.

Leave me be.



Take these chains off

Take 'em off of my heart



Reach out to me, as if from the grave

I tried to run but I'm tied to you like a slave.

It's my fault for loving you so

You were so precious, how could I know.

You turned mean overnight

Poor poor me.



I don't owe you anything

Why don't you get out of my life.

Through it all the memories cling

And I can't sleep at night.



Help me, I'm beggin' you please.

You've got the power down on my knees

Give me some kind of life.

Leave me be.
