I Wouldn't 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 two
[G]in the comfort of my hom[D]e.
It helps to [A]minimize the [Bm]crazy things
I hear when I'm [A]alone.
[G]You'd think by now that every sound wouldn't
[D]send her memory crash[A]ing through my [Bm]brain[A]
[G]I wouldn't mind the shackles
if it [A]wasn't for the rattle of
[D]the chain[A][Bm][A]
Cer[D]tain little things she used to [G]say,
they come through loud an[D]d clear
It's sad but I admit [A]I listened c[Bm]loser
than I did when she was [A]here
[G]Now every noise sounds like her voice
and [D]I'm torn between the
[A]pleasure and [Bm]the pain[A]
[G]I wouldn't mind the shackles
if it [A]wasn't for the rattling of [D]the chains
[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 of [D]time
[G]But every day's a battle,
to keep the burden of my [D]heart
from interfering with [Bm]my m[A]ind
It's knowing [D]that I'll always
have her last good[G]bye,
ringing in my [D]ear, [A]driving me in[Bm]sane[A]
[G]I wouldn't mind the shackles
if it [A]wasn't for the rattling of
[D]the chains[A][Bm][A][G][A]
Now it seem[D]s like every
time I turn [G]around,
here he comes [D]again
Someone else is [A]telling me
[Bm]about the new love that she wound up [A]in
[G]I tell myself they owe me well,
but [D]I'm trampled at the
[A]mention [D]of her [Bm]name[A]
[G]I wouldn't mind the shackles
if it [A]wasn't for the rattling of the [D]chain
[G]I wouldn't mind the shackles,
I knew the day she left
that I'd be [D]wearing them
[A]until the end of [D]time
[G]But every day's a battle
to keep the burden of my [D]heart
from interfering with [A]my mind
It's knowing [D]that I'll always
have her last good[G]bye
Ringing in my [D]ear, [A]driving me in[Bm]sane[A]
[G]I wouldn't mind the shackles
if it [A]wasn't for the rattle of
[D]the chains[A][Bm][A]
Nobody [Em]wouldn't mind
the shackles they did,
[A]was it [Em]for the rat[A]tle of

[Outro 1]
the chains.
