[Verse 1]
Am                      G  
Sittin’ here beside the fire, 
                   C
sleepin’ like a child
                 G              
Warmed from your love, but in my 
 F
mind
Dm                C      A#     
There’s somethin’ wrong, I can’t
    A
 go on

Am                   G           
At the age of twenty-nine, I feel
              C
 that I’ve re-signed
             G            F
No reason to live, slowly dyin’
Dm          C     A#           A
Caught in a cage, our love has made

[Chorus]
A                     C     F#m  
Love’s a jailer in my life, 
  A   D     G
love’s twi-stin’ knife
   D          A        D   E
Is tearin’ my heart, a-part
A                             C  
Love’s the chains that tie me 
   F#m A    D      G
down, in  love you’ll drown
     D           A
It’s just like a stone
D  A                 D          
So strong, love is a jailer, so 
A                   E
strong, love’s a jailer

[Verse 2]
Am                     G   
Can it be in all these years, 
                           C
there’s nothin’ left to keep
              G              
No challenges call, just deep 
    F
in-side
Dm        C     A#        A
A girl in pain, to make a change

Am                     G         
Tell me what I have to do, should
                   C
 I turn and walk a-way
                G              
And leave you a-lone, leave you 
 F
cryin’
Dm        C   A#           A
I’d never go, and hurt you so

[Chorus]
A                     C     F#m  
Love’s a jailer in my life, 
  A   D     G
love’s twi-stin’ knife
   D          A        D   E
Is tearin’ my heart, a-part
A                             C  
Love’s the chains that tie me 
   F#m A    D      G
down, in  love you’ll drown
     D           A
It’s just like a stone
D  A                 D          
So strong, love is a jailer, so 
A                   E
strong, love’s a jailer
