Johnny Cash - I'm Free from the Chain Gang Now: chords

       G#          C#           G#
I got rid of the shackles that bound me
         G#              A#       D#
and the guards that were always around me
            G#           C#          G#         C#
There were tears on the mail mother sent me in jail
          G#            A#        G#
But I'm free from the chain gang now

All the years I was known and respected
'til one day I was wrongly suspected
I was shackled in chains in a cold freezin' rain
but I'm free from the chain gang now

All the years I was known by a number
how I kept my mind is a wonder
But like a bird in a tree I got my liberty
and I'm free from the chain gang now

I got rid of the shackles that bound me
and the guards that were always around me

There were tears on the mail mother sent me in jail
But I'm free from the chain gang now

There were tears on the mail mother sent me in jail
But I'm free from the chain gang now
