D  D#m  E                   D  D#m E
Is life everything you want to be
Does it give you everything that you need
Does it live up to your expectations
Are you ready for the celebrations

Chorus:
C#dim7
This is not for the weak of mind
Are you sure that you're my kind
Do you want to be part of me
                                  D D#m E
Are you sure that you can really see

Are you chained to a life that you don't want
Is it hard for you to find a way out
Can you live without the love that you need
Are you sure that what you have is so real

Chorus:
This is not for the weak of mind
Are you sure that you're my kind
Do you want to be part of me
Are you sure that you can really see

             Cm
All of your life, they try to take your cover
Turn you into another,
and make you change your name
When you fall, it's up to you to recover
You can't depend on another,
to help you with the pain, yeah
I'm shaking off the chains
I'm shaking off the chains

Chorus:
This is not for the weak of mind
Are you sure that you're my kind
Do you want to be part of me
Are you sure that you can really see

In the night, you say that are falling
People always calling, calling out your name
What do you know, a face appears at the window
Tapping on the window, the window of your soul
I'm shaking off the chains,
I'm tired of all the pain
I'm shaking off the chains,
let me live again
Shaking off the chains, shaking off the chains
