It's been ten years [G#] and a thousand cheers, [F#] and look at the mess [C#] I'm in.
A broken nose [G#] and a broken heart, [F#] an empty bottle [C#] of gin.

It's been ten years [G#] and a thousand cheers, [F#] and look at the mess [C#] I'm in.
A broken nose [G#] and a broken heart, [F#] an empty bottle [C#] of gin.
I sit and [G#] I pray [F#] in my broken house [C#]
chivalry.
I'm singing to [G#] myself, [F#] there's got to be [C#] another way.
Take away, [G#] take away, [F#] take away this [C#] falling chain.
Well I'm lonely [G#] and I'm tired [F#] and I can't [C#] take any more pain.
Take away, [G#] take away, [F#] they're off to return [C#] again.
Take away, [G#] take away, [F#] take away, hey, hey, hey, hey.
_ Take away this [C#] falling chain.
_ [G#] _ _ [F#] _ _ [C#] _
_ _ _ [G#] _ _ [F#] _ _ [C#]
I've searched and [G#] I've searched to [F#] find the perfect [C#] life.
A brand new car [G#] and a brand new suit.
[F#] I even got me a [C#] little wife.
But wherever _ [G#] I [F#] want to show up, find [C#] myself there.
You can run all [G#] your life, [F#] but not go [C#] anywhere.
Take away, [G#] take away, [F#] take away this [C#] falling chain.
Well I'm sick [G#] and I'm tired [F#] and I can't take [C#] any more pain.
Take away, [G#] take away, [F#] they're off to [C#] return again.
Take away, [G#] take away, [F#] take away, hey, hey, hey.
_ Take away this falling [C#] chain.

I passed the bar [G#] on the way to [F#] my dingy hotel [C#]
room.
I spent [G#] all my money.
[F#] I've been drinking since half [C#] past noon.
Well I'll wake there [G#] in the morning, [F#] or maybe in the [C#] county jail.
Got my heart [G#] getting harder.
[F#] I'm born to lose and [C#] destined to fail.
Take away, [G#] take away, [F#] take away this [C#] falling chain.
Well I'm lonely [G#] and I'm tired [F#] and I can't [C#] take any more pain.
Take away, [G#] take away, [F#] they're off to [C#] return again.
Take away, take away, [F#] take away, hey, hey, hey.
_ Take away this falling chain.
