G#m                        F#  E  F# G#m
I move away it don't do me no good
                                 F#      E
Three thousand miles don't help like I thought it would
 G        F#
Help me, beggin' you please
F                  E              B C#m B C#m
You got the power down on my knees
                         C#m D# C#m
Give me some kind of life
         D#
Leave me be

Chorus:
            G#m   E
Take these chains off
                C#m
Take 'em off my heart
            G#m    E
Take these chains off
                C#m
Take 'em off 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 loving you so
You were so precious, how could I know?
You turned mean overnight
Poor, poor me

E
I don't owe you anything
              F#             G# F# G# F#
Why don't you get out of my life
  E
Through it all the memories cling
C#m                    D#
And I can't sleep at night

Help me, I'm begging you please
You got the power, down on my knees
Give me some kind of life
Leave me be

Chorus:
Take these chains off
Take them off from my heart
Take these chains off
Take them off from my heart
Take these chains off
Take them off from my heart
Take these chains off
Take them off from my heart
Take these chains off
Take them off from my heart
