Chorus

Chains, my baby's got me locked up in chains

And they ain't the kind that you can see

Wo oh these chains of lo--ve got a hold on me, yeah

(same pattern as chorus):

Chains, no I can't break away from these chains

Can't run around 'cause I'm not free

Wo oh these chains of love won't let me be, yeah

Verse 1

Now believe me when I tell you, I think you're fine

I'd like to love you, but darling, I'm imprisoned by these...

(chorus)

Verse 2

I wanna tell you, pretty baby, your lips look sweet

I'd like to kiss them, but I can't break away from all of these...

(chorus)
