[Intro]
[Verse 1]
well I m a man and I ve been trying my hymns
doing the best that I can to keep getting by
but I fell alone though my closets got bones
with only half of them known well there spilling out
[Chorus]
so please take these chains take my heart
spit in sin or go an fall apart
and I can t stand to be holding cards when the lights go out
I need the rock need the roll
I got a feeling I gotta go
I can t see where the light is shown without a little help
so please take my hell
[Verse 2]
well I ve got a son and after all that I ve done
I probably should have been shunned but I m standing tall
he used to say daddy why don t you pray
though my spirits been frayed I m pulling through
[Chorus]
so please take these chains take my heart
spit in sin or go an fall apart
and I can t stand to be holding cards when the lights go out
I need the rock need the roll
I got a feeling I gotta go
I can t see where the light is shown without a little help
so please take my hell
[Verse 3]
well I see the road but the line that I tow
it makes it harder to go where I outta be
so I trudge along and through the words of a song
try not to get em all wrong and I m tryin hard
[Chorus]
so please take these chains take my heart
spit in sin or go an fall apart
and I can t stand to be holding cards when the lights go out
I need the rock need the roll
I got a feeling I gotta go
I can t see where the light is shown without a little help
so please take my hell
