I wish I was stronger
I wish I was wiser than right now
Can’t wait any longer
For you to tell me you’ll always be around

But I know something ain’t right, your love has locked me so tight
I got this feeling that you ain’t gonna stay and I’m never gonna break away.

Chorus:
I’ve been chained, I’ve been chained, chained by you
You got the key to me boy, yeah you do
I’ve been chained, I’ve been chained, chained by you
Chained by you…

I always thought you were a gentleman
But now you’ve shown me all I was too blind to see
Now I’m wishin’ for a better man
To find somebody to break these chains
They are holding me…

Cause I know somethin’ ain’t right, I got this feelin that you ain’t gonna stay
And I’m never gonna break away.

Chorus:
I’ve been chained, I’ve been chained, chained by you
You got the key to me boy, yeah you do
I’ve been chained, I’ve been chained, chained by you
Chained by you…

Now I can’t wait for you to go ans change your ways
If only I could break these chains
That are holding me, they are holding me, yeah!

Chorus:
I’ve been chained, I’ve been chained, chained by you
You got the key to me boy, yeah you do
I’ve been chained, I’ve been chained, chained by you
Chained by you…
I’ve been chained, I’ve been chained, chained by you
You got the key to me boy, yeah you do
I’ve been chained, I’ve been chained, chained by you
Chained by you…
