Shackles and Chains Lyrics & Tabs by David Allan Coe

Shackles and Chains

guitar chords lyrics

David Allan Coe

On a long lonesome journey I am going
So my sweet little darling don't cry
For in shackles and chains they will take me

To a prison to live till I die
(chorus)
And each night threw the bars
I will gaze at the stars
My dreams dear of you so in vain
A peice of stone I will use for my pillow
While I'm sleeping in shackles and chains
Put your arms threw these bars once more darling
Let me kiss your sweet lips I love best
For in sorrow they were my conculution
And in sadness my haven of rest
(repeat chorus)

For in sorrow they were my conculution
And in sadness my haven of rest
(repeat chorus)
