Feeling The Weight Of My Chains
By Cal Smith
 
G                               C
I nearly made it all the way to work this morning
                  G
Then I changed my mind
 
There's an empty feeling in my soul
       C                                G
That's crying for a lifetime of marking time
 
        D7                            C
I don’t know if it's too late to find success
                           G
Or if my life can take the change
 
But I'm not getting any younger
        D7                       G
And I'm feeling the weight of my chains
 
                              C
My woman waits at home for me inside
                       G
The safety of an aging dream
 
She goes on believing in some 
D7                            G
Promises that she ain't never seen
 
    D7                                   C
And it would break her heart if she knew how
                                G
My thoughts are tortured by the strain
 
God knows that I love her
         D7                       G
I'm just feeling the weight of my chains
 
                                     C
I'm not looking for that pot of gold beyond
                          G
Some faded rainbow in the sky
                                      C
I'm just trying hard to feed a hungry dream
                           G
That's trying hard to stay alive
 
    C
But sometime I feel like giving up
                            G
When all my efforts seem in vain
 
But somehow I'll keep on trying
         D7                       G
I'm just feeling the weight of my chains
 
 
Lord knows I'll keep on trying
         D7                       G
I'm just feeling the weight of my chains
