[Verse 1: George Harrison, John Lennon & Paul McCartney]
Chains, my baby's got me locked up in chains
And they ain't the kind that you can see
Whoa, these chains of love got a hold on me, yeah
[Verse 2: George Harrison, John Lennon & Paul McCartney]
Chains, well, I can't break away from these chains
Can't run around, 'cause I'm not free
Whoa, oh, these chains of love won't let me be, yeah
[Bridge: George Harrison]
I wanna tell you, pretty baby
I think you're fine
I'd like to love you
But, darling, I'm imprisoned by these
[Verse 3: George Harrison, John Lennon & Paul McCartney]
Chains, my baby's got me locked up in chains
And they ain't the kind that you can see
Whoa, oh, these chains of love got a hold on me, yeah
[Bridge: George Harrison]
Please believe me when I tell you
Your lips are sweet
I'd like to kiss them
But I can't break away from all of these
[Verse 4: George Harrison, John Lennon & Paul McCartney]
Chains, my baby's got me locked up in chains
And they ain't the kind that you can see
Whoa, oh, these chains of love got a hold on me, yeah
