C#m
Tell me can you see me now?
A                                 E
While you were busy lost in the crowd
                     B
I was busy making myself-elf
C#m
Into someone free from doubts
A                            E
I was down and left on the shelf
                     B
I wanted a story to tell-el

    C#m
I scream it to the people
Started calling (calling)
 A
Sing it with the people that are falling
(falling)
 E
Down, down
 B
Now, now

Chorus:
               C#m
It's time to breakout
                     A
So everybody just scream out
                E
I'm the only one (I'm the only one)
                B
I'm the only one
                                     C#m
No chains, no chains won't make me break down
                   A
And I can finally see now
                E
I'm the only one (I'm the only one)
                B
I'm the only one
                                   C#m
No chains, no chains won't hold me down

Tell me how it feels to know
I'm not a puppet under control
I cut the strings a long time ago, oh
I guess that I should thank you though
Cause all you was the fire for my soul
And now I'm up here running the show

I scream it to the people
Started calling
Singing words that came from all the fallen
Down, down
Now, now

Chorus

No chains, no chains won't hold me...

C#m
And when the dust is settled down
A
You'll be all alone thinking, "how?"
E                     B
Everyone is singing aloud

Chorus:
It's time to breakout
So everybody just scream out
I'm the only one (I'm the only one)
I'm the only one
No truth, no chains won't make me break down
And I can finally see now
I'm the only one (I'm the only one)
I'm the only one
No chains, no chains won't hold me down
