[Verse 1]
I found a picture of you, oh
It hijacked my world that night
From a place in the past we've been cast out of, oh
Now we’re back in the fight
[Chorus]
Yes, we're back on the chain gang
Whoa, back on the chain gang
[Verse 2]
A circumstance beyond our control, oh
The phone, the TV, and the news of the world
Got in the house like a pigeon from hell, oh
Sand in our eyes, descended like flies
[Chorus]
Yes, we're back on the chain gang
Whoa, back on the chain gang
[Bridge]
The powers that be

Bring me to my knees
When I see what they’ve done to you
But I'll die as I stand here today
Knowing that deep in my heart
They'll fall to ruin one day
For making us part
[Verse 3]
I found a picture of you, oh
They were the happiest days of my life
Like a break in the battle was your part, oh
Lonely heart, lonely hearts
[Chorus]
Yes, we're back on the chain gang
Whoa, back on the chain gang
