I Wouldnt' Mind the Shackles Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][A][Bm][A][G][A]

[Verse 1]
[D]I've been known
to have a drink or [G]two
In the comfort of [D]my home
It helps to [A]minimize [Bm]the crazy things
I hear when I'm [A]alone
[G]You'd think by now that
every sound
Wouldn't [D]send her memory
[A]crashing through my [Bm]brain[A]
[G]I wouldn't mind the shackles if it [A]wasn't
for the rattle of the chain
[D][A]

[Verse 2]
[Bm][A]
Cer[D]tain little things she
used [G]to say
They come through loud an[D]d clear
It's sad but I ad[A]mit I listen
[Bm]closer than I did
When she was [A]here
[G]Now every noise sounds like her voice
And [D]I'm torn between
[A]the pleasure and [Bm]the pain[A]
[G]I wouldn't mind the shackles if i[A]t
wasn't for the rattle of [D]the chain

[Verse 3]
[G]I wouldn't mind the shackles,
I knew the day she left
That I'd be [D]wearing them
un[A]til the end [D]of time
[G]But every day's a battle just to keep
the burden of my [D]heart
From interfering with my [A]mind
It's knowing [D]that I'll always
have her last good[G]bye
Ringing in my [D]ears,
[A]driving me in[Bm]sane[D]
I wouldn't mind the shackles if [A]it wasn't
for the rattle of the chain
[D][A][Bm][A][G]

[Verse 4]
[A]
Now it seem[D]s like every time I turn
[G]around here it comes [D]again
Someone else [A]is telling me [Bm]about
the brand new love she wound [A]up in
[G]I tell myself they all mean well
But I still [D]tremble at the men
[A]tion of her [Bm]name[A]
[G]I wouldn't mind the shackles if i[A]t
wasn't for the rattle of [D]the chain

[Verse 5]
[G]I wouldn't mind the shackles,
I knew the day she left
That I'd be [D]wearing them
un[A]til the end [D]of time
[G]But every day's a battle just to keep
the burden of my [D]heart
From interfering with my [A]mind
It's knowing [D]that I'll always
have her last good[G]bye
Ringing in my [D]ears, [A]driving me in[Bm]sane
[D]I wouldn't mind the shackles
If [A]it wasn't for the rattle of [D]the chain

[Verse 6]
No [Em]I wouldn't mind the shackles
If [G]it wasn't for the [A]rattle of

[Outro 1]
the chain
[D][A][Bm][A][G][A][D]
