Chains

C
Midnight
     F                      Am
I stare out the window from my room
           G                      C
I hear the dogs, it's going to be dawn soon
  F                    Am G
I wonder where you are
      C
In my mind's eye
    F                     Am
I’m floating alone in the night sky
    G                         C
The treetops, the buildings beneath me
  F                     Am G
I feel my heart beating

C F Am G

   C        F          Am
So I try to find anything
            G                 C
To kill the time, to quiet my mind
        F                   Am
There's got to be something
        G  N.C.
There's gotta be someone

Am          F             C            G
Else still awake, in this city I can't take
        Am                 F
Another night, and I can’t stay
            C                 G
I've got to break, a-break, a-break
             C  F  Am G
These chains away, away
          C   F Am G
Ooh, ooh, ooh

    C
The bars close
   F                          Am
We stumble around through the echoes
G                       C
Hiding our past in some old clothes
          F                 Am G
Like it's some dirty secret

    C          F                   Am
And I see your face in the passing light
              G
It's so good tonight
                            C
I'm tired of putting up this fight
        F                   Am
There's got to be somewhere
        G  N.C.
There's got to be someone

Am          F             C            G
Else still alive, in this city I can't hide
        Am                 F
Another night, and I can't stay
            C                 G
I've got to break, a-break, a-break
             C  F  Am G
These chains away, away
             C  F  Am G
These chains away, away
          C   F
Ooh, ooh, ooh
          Am  G
Ooh, ooh, ooh

     Am            F
They lead into the wind
          C                    G
Riding on nerves and choking engines
            Am                   F
Built for a time now fifty years gone
                C                  G
I can hear them whispering at the dawn
          Am           F
When I'm alone in this cell
                  C                    G
With ten thousand words and nowhere to go
                     Am        F                     C G
And I wish you could know, how much I still need you

Am F C G

    Am            F
The spell of this town
                  C                  G
The graves on the hill lit up like a crown
                 Am                  F
The names on the signs, I can't even say
       C                 G  N.C.
How to break, a-break, a-break
             C  F  Am G
These chains away, away
             C  F  Am G
These chains away, away

Am F C G

    C                F           Am            G
Sometimes I feel the pain at the heart of this ember
          C       F              Am       G
All these ashes I choke on, does anyone remember
         C                 F         Am            G
Where we came from, why we came to a place with no center
       C F Am G
And no e---edge
       C F Am G
And no e----end
