Chains of love around my neck but I wore 'em much too long
Chains of love around my neck just look how long you've been gone
Do you remember baby what you told me on that night
That you would always love me and would never leave my side
And I believed your tender lovin' words you said to me
But all these months of waitin' have just brought me misery
These chains of love round my neck...
[ guitar ]
So now's the time that's come for me to set your records straight
When you decide to come home baby you'll just have to wait
I finally found the answer to what love is all about
So when you come to me baby you'll see me straighten out
Chains of love around my neck but they'll be for someone new
Chains of love around my neck change of love with someone too
Chains of love around my neck but I wore 'em much too long
Chains of love around my neck just look how long you've been gone
