(Highs go first / Lows echo)
Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain of fools
(Highs first/Lows echo)
For five long years
I thought you
I thought you were my man
But I found out
I’m just a link in your chain
You got me where you want me
I ain’t nothin’ but your fool
Ya treated me mean
You treated me cruel
Chain, chain, chain
Chain of fools
Every chain,
Has got a weak link
I might be weak, child
But I’ll give you strength
(Solos)
You told me to leave you alone
My father said, “Come on home”
My doctor said, “Take it easy”
Oh but your lovin’ is much too strong
I’m added to your
(Highs first/Lows echo)
Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain, chain, chai-i-in
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain of fools
One of these mornings
The chain is gonna break
But up until the day
I’m gonna take all I can take
(Highs first/Lows repeat)
Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain, chain, chai-i-in
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain of fools
(All- No echo)
Chain, chain, chai-i-in
Chain, chain, chain
Chain, chain, chai-i-in
(Slowly…) Chain of fools
