Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain of fools

For five long years
I thought you were my man
But I found out
I’m just a link in your chain
Oh, you got me where you want me
I ain’t nothin’ but your fool
You treated me mean
Oh, you treated me cruel

Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain of fools

Every chain
Has got a weak link
I might be weak, yeah
But I’ll give you strength
Oh, hey
You told me to leave you alone
My father said, “Come on home”
My doctor said, “Take it easy”
Oh, but your lovin’ is much too strong

I’m added to your chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain of fools

One of these mornings
The chain is gonna break
But up until the day
I’m gonna take all I can take, oh hey

Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Your chain of fools

Chain, chain, chain
Chain, chain, chain (Oh)
Chain, chain, chain
Your chain of fools, oh yeah
