D C# Bm A G A
D G
I been known to have a drink or two
D
In the comfort of my home
C#
It helps to minimize
Bm
The crazy things I hear
A
When I’m alone.
G
You’d think by now
Every sound wouldn’t
D C#
Send a memory crashin’
Bm A G
Threw my brain
I Wouldn't Mind The Shackles
A D
If it, wadn't for the rattle of the chain.
D C# Bm A
D G
Certain little things she used to say
D
They come though loud and clear
C# Bm
It’s sad but I admit that I listen closer
A G
Than I did when she was here
Now every noise sounds like her voice
D C# Bm A G
And I’m torn between the pleasure and the pain
I Wouldn't Mind The Shackles
A D
If it, wadn't for the rattle of the chain.
Chorus:
G
I Wouldn't Mind The Shackles
D
I knew the day she left that I’d be wearin’
A D
Them until the end of time
G
But everyday’s a battle
D
Just to keep the burden of my heart
A
From interfearin’ with my mind.
D
It’s knowin’ that I’ll always
G
Have her last goodbye
D
Ringin’ in my ears
C# Bm D
Drivin’ me insane
I Wouldn't Mind The Shackles
A D
If it, wadn't for the rattle of the chain.
C# Bm A G A
D G
Now it seems like every time I turn around
D
Here it comes again
C#
Someone else is tellin’ me
Bm A G
About the brand new love she wound up in
I tell myself
They all mean well
D
But I still tremble
C# Bm A G
At the mention of her name
I Wouldn't Mind The Shackles
A D
If it, wadn't for the rattle of the chain.
Chorus:
G
No I Wouldn't Mind The Shackles
A D
If it, wadn't for the rattle of the chain.
