Chains Lyrics by Carole King

Pearls: Songs of Goffin and King

0

[Chorus]
Chains, my baby's got me locked up in chains
And they ain't the kind
That you can see
Whoa, these chains of love got a hold on me, yeah
Chains, well I can't break away from these chains
Can't run around
'Cause I'm not free
Oh, these chains of love won't let me be, yeah

[Verse 1]
Now believe me when I tell you
That I think you're fine
I'd like to love you
But darling I'm imprisoned by these

[Chorus]
Chains, my baby's got me locked up in chains
And they ain't the kind
That you can see
Whoa, these chains of love got a hold on me, yeah

[Verse 2]
I wanna tell you now baby
Your lips look sweet
I'd like to kiss them
But I can't break away from all of these

[Chorus]
Chains, my baby's got me locked up in chains
And they ain't the kind
That you can see
Oh, these chains of love got a hold on me, yeah

[Outro]
Chains, chains of love
Chains of love
Chains of love
