 5     6     4      4 -4   5
Take these chains from my heart
 6  -5  5  -4
And set me free
 -5 -6 -4     -4
You've grown cold, 
 5 -5  -5  -6    6   -5 5
And no lon-ger care for me,
 6  -5   5   -4  5  -5   6
All my faith in you is gone,
 -6    6   -5    5   -5   6  -6
While the heart-ache lin-gers on,
-6    -6     -7    -5  6   -6
Take these chains from my heart
-7  7   -4  4
And set me free,
-6    -6     -7    -5  6   -6   -7   7  -4  4
Take these chains from my heart and set me free.

Take these tears,
From my eyes,
And let me see,
Just a spark of love,
That used to be,
If you love somebody new,
Let me find a new love, too,
Take these chains from my heart and set me free.

Give my heart just a word of sympathy,
Be as fair to my heart as you can be,
Then if you no longer care,
For the love that's beating there,
Take these chains from my heart and set me free,
Take these chains from my heart and set me free.
