[Verse 1]
G                              C
On a long lonesome journey I'm going
C           D                G
Oh darling, please don't you cry
G                                 
In these shackles and chains they 
      C
will take me
C    D                     G
To a prison to stay till I die


Continues after the ad
[Verse 2]
G                                 
And at night through the bars I 
   C
will gaze at the stars
G   D
And dream of your kisses in vain
G                                  
A piece of stone I will use for my 
C
pillow
C         D                       
While I'm sleepin' in shackles and 
 G
chains

[Verse 3]
G                              
Put your arms through these bars 
          C
once my darlin'
C      D                         
Let me kiss so sweet lips I love 
G
best
G                         
For in heartaches you're my 
  C
consolation
C      D                  G
And in sorrow my haven of rest


[Verse 4]
G                                 
And at night through the bars I 
   C
will gaze at the stars
C   D                       G
The dream of your kisses in vain
G                                  
A piece of stone I will use for my 
C
pillow
C         D                       
While I'm sleepin' in shackles and 
 G
chains
