[Intro]
Falling, falling
Falling, falling
[Verse 1]

My chains, they come falling down
My chains, they come falling
[Verse 2]

[Pre-Chorus 2]

I want you where you are right now
[Chorus]
I'm on my way right now
Promise I won't be long
Baby, keep the blue light on
Chains, they come falling down
[Chorus]

Baby, keep the blue light on
My chains, they come falling down
My chains, they come falling down
My chains, they come falling
My chains, they come falling down
It's all falling down
My chains, they come falling down
[Interlude]
Gold in the offering
Darling, my guard is down
When I know you're around
Only one that fit the...
[Outro]
No, no, no, no (Falling)
No, no, no, no (Falling)
No, no, no, no (Falling)
No, no, no, no (Falling)
No, no, no, no (Falling)
No, no, no, no (Falling)
No, no, no, no (Falling)
No, no, no, no
