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.
Note: The chords in the bracket is a guide for bass, enjoy!
