Chains Around My Heart by Richard Marx
Intro: (2x)
(/F#)
Out of my sight, but the vision is still the same
(/Bm) (/F#)
Out of my mind, but the memory remains unchanged
Stones thrown in anger hold twice the hurt
- hold
Return to sender could only make things worse
Chorus:
Girl, you ve got to break these chains around my heart
Cause I ve been lonely too long
You ve got to break these chains around my heart
(/Eb) hold (/ - - )
So I can finally get on with my life
(/F#)
Don t ask me why, why I ve lived with this all alone
(/Bm) (/F#)
Locked up inside, and its cutting me to the bone
Love is a stranger avoiding me
- hold
Beware of danger s the only sign I see
(Repeat Chorus)
Are you listening, is there something that you d like to say?
Am I getting through, are you just gonna leave me this way?
Coda: (2x)
Bridge:
Girl, you ve got to break these chains around my heart
Before it tears me in two
You ve got to break these chains around my heart
That s all I m asking of you
You ve got to break these chains around my heart
Cause I ve been lonely too long
You ve got to break these chains around my heart
(/Eb)- hold (/ - - )
So I can finally get on with my life.
