Verse 1:

G
 Darling now,
C
 You made me change my mind.
G          D
 Can go no further,
G                   D
 Because you got me chained and bound.

Verse 2:

G
 Taller than the tallest sky,
C
 Sweeter than a grape on a vine.
G          D
 Can go no further,
G                   D
 Because you got me chained and bound,
Right now, now.

Verse 3:

G
 So glad, I'm so glad, I'm so glad,
                    C
Oh, I don't have to worry no more,
G   D         G               D
 Oh my my my, baby, somebody, somebody.

Bridge 1:

Em
 What kind of life,
                 G
Is this kind I'm living?
         Em
Oh Lord, what kind of love,
                 G
Is she trying to give me?
Em
 I feel like I'm standing up,
                G
And telling the world;
    G       G/F# G/E  D
I'm chained to   your love.

Verse 4:

G
 Darling, oh, don't break,
            C
This little heart of mine.
G                   D
 There's no greater love,
                  G               D
Than this love of yours and mine.

Verse 5:

G
 You walk with your head in the sky,
C
 Darling don't ever pass me by.
G                 D
 I ain't going no further,
   D
No further,
G                   D
 Because you got me chained and bound.

Coda:

G
 So glad, I'm so glad, I'm so glad,
Lord, I don't have to worry no more.
She got me chained to her love, now,
I don't, I don't want to be taken away.
I'm chained, I'm chained and a little bound,
Now, now, now, I'm chained,
I'm chained to your love.
I don't, I don't know darling,
I wanna to be taken away, now.
Oh, just a little bit of soul,
Just a little bit of soul, now.

(Repeat to Fade)
