                        Db                Ab
I got rid of the shackles that bound me
                                         Bb7                 Eb
And the guards that were always around       me.
                           Ab                      Db
There were tears        on the mail
                       Ab              Db/F
Mother wrote           me in jail,
             Ab                Eb/G          Ab
But I'm free from the chain gang now.

                               Db                    Ab
All the years I was known and re - spected
                                Bb7                 Eb
Till one day I was wrongly suspect - ed.
                  Ab                     Db
I was shack  -  led in chains
                  Ab               Db/F
In the cold,       freezin' rain,
             Ab                Eb/G          Ab
But I'm free from the chain gang now.

How I kept my mind is a wonder.

But like a bird        in a tree,
              Ab             Db/F
I got my        liber - ty,
