Lyrics Break This Chain - John Michael Montgomery

Break This Chain

It’s been handed down for generations
From my grandpa to my dad on to me
All my life I’ve been shackled to a bottle
I never knew what it was like to be free
It’s time to break this chain that’s been holdin' me down
Leave it layin' on the ground
It’s time to make a change, I’ve caused enough pain
Lord, won’t you help me break this chain
I give you thanks for givin' me a reason
And a wife with forgiveness in her smile
Oh I want these two hands to be rock steady
As she’s handin' me our newborn baby child
It’s time to break this chain that’s been holdin' me down
Leave it layin' on the ground
It’s time to make a change, I’ve caused enough pain
Lord, won’t you help me break this chain
It’s time to make a change, I’m tired of this pain
Lord, won’t you help me break this chain
You made the sunshine and the rain
And you can wash away this pain
