Chains

Am Am When the shadows of the fathers have receded at last Am (Little sister with the ball and chain) Am When the doe-eyed stiffs are dust of the past Am (Little sister with the ball and chain) Am When I crawl back home to some cavernous womb Am (Little sister with the ball and chain) Am I will close my eyes and dream a face on the loom Am (Little sister with the ball and chain) Am F Am F Am Yeah, I said I was going, I didn't say when Am (Little sister with the ball and chain) Am As the doe-eyed mastiffs grow old in their pen Am (Little sister with the ball and chain) Am As some facile greatness, greatness seeps Am (Little sister with the ball and chain) Am Into the sadness of my fact as I fall down to sleep Am (Little sister with the ball and chain) Am My eyes, brother!
