(hal bynum/bud reneau)
Bought a ticket to seattle but I can’t get to the plane
Everytime I leave you I keep running out of chain
I hunger for your love it never gives me any slack
But if I ever break awayI’m never coming back to these
Chainschainsshackles and chains
No matter what it takes some day I’m gonna break these
Chainschainsshackles and chains
These love takingheart breakingcoldhardlonely making chains
You never try to hold me ’till you see me walking out
I guess you’d rather be with me than ever be without
You call me back and kiss me and my heart begins to sink
When I know that all you’re doing’s taking up another link in these
Chainschainsshackles and chains
No matter what it takes some day I’m gonna break these

These love takingheart breakingcoldhardlonely making chains
Love was never meant to be a one-way street
I was never meant to be falling at your feet
You got me where you want me and I don’t know what to do
You don’t belong to me but I belong to you in these
Chainschainsshackles and chains
No matter what it takes some day I’m gonna break these
