 Gm If I'm underneath the table A# Then pour me another drink D# Oh, I don't want to remember D I don't even want to think Gm I'm a slave to my addiction A# I'm a hazard to myself D# On a fast ride to prediction D Oh, I'm heading straight to hell Cm When I throw up at your window F You should confiscate my key Cm I would drive you off the fucking wall F D To late to believe Chorus: Gm A# I tried so hard to change D# But the devil locked my door D I'll wear these heavy chains Gm around my neck like a prisoner A# I just wanna love D# But he won't let me go D Loosen up my chains Gm Oh, I'm a condemned prisoner I was stood there in the spotlight With this city at my feet But I was a dead man walking Nothing ever comes for free So I moved on down to London Where I traded in my soul I could not fill my heart With all those one night stands and gold So throw me out your mom's house I've been living there too long Well she never liked me anyway Cause she knows I'm northern scum Chorus: I tried so hard to change But the devil locked my door I wear these heavy chains around my neck Like a prisoner I just wanna love But he won't let me go Loosen up my chains Or I'm a condemned prisoner Gm I think my minds on the blink So I get high, so high and I drink I suffered enough of the heart palps when I think Discovered it up at the bar 9 drinks in Cm Now I'm at the disco, convinced the girls think I'm the bizzo F Course I'm on the brink Looking at me funny then course I'm gonna swing Cm Karaoke? Course I wanna sing D Or pour me another drink Gm A# D# D It always ends the same D Gm Or I'm a condemned prisoner Chorus: I tried so hard to change But the devil locked my door I wear these heavy chains around my neck Like a prisoner I just wanna love But he won't let me go Loosen up my chains Or I'm a condemned prisoner | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA#  Cm  D  D#  F  Gm  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
