Chains Around Your Heart |
| It’s a late cool autumn evening |
| And the sunset melts into night |
| With a v-twin throbbing beneath me |
| And my head’s spinning allright |
| Ritchie and me we started as kids |
| In a rock 'n' roll band on the street where we lived |
| It’s a long hard ride till the morning |
| As the trees and wind start to sing |
| Chains around your heart that bind |
| Break away and leave them behind |
| Well once there was a time in this rock 'n' roll dream |
| This here town would be rip apart at the seams |
| Now I’m out of money and billy’s out of work |
| Eddie’s pushin' pencils for the county clerk |
| Everybody’s job is getting pushed out of town |
| Life is just knockin' 'em down |
| Boyhood dreams are run into the ground |
| Long dark shadows hang over this town |
| Cast away the chains that bleed |
| Break away and I leave you free |
| Take my hand come leave with me |
| As nighttime fades away |
| We’ll ride the hills and desert sand |
| Cross the barren land |
| All the families have all gone |
| Their jobs went before them I’m sure |
| They knocked down the corner barber shop |
| And put up a super triple level parking lot |
| There once was a time you could vote for a man |
| Who wouldn’t try and stick a gun in your hands |
| So cut out all your talkin' |
| And make love with me through the night |
| Chains around your heart that bind |
| Break away and leave them behind |
| Just leave them behind |
| Just leave them behind |
