            Em 
The way you move 
           C 
Has got me yearning 
            Em 
The way you move 
            C 
Has left me burning 
Em 
I know you know what you're doing to me 
C 
I know my hands will never be free 
Em 
I know what it's like to be 
    C 
In chains 

The way you move 
Is meant to haunt me 
The way you move 
To tempt and taunt me 
I know you knew on the day you were born 
I know somehow I should've been warned 
I know I walk every midnight to dawn 
In Chains 

Em         C 
In chains, I'm in chains 
In chains, I'm in chains 

Am 
You've got me dying for you 
C 
Its you that I'm living through 
D 
You've got me praying to you 
F                          Em 
Saying to you anything you want me to 
Am 
You've got me reaching for you 
C 
My souls beseeching me too 
D 
You've got me singing to you 
F                            Em 
Bringing to you anything you ask me to 

The way you move 
Is mesmerizing 
The way you move 
Is hypnotizing 
I know I crumble when you are around 
Start to mumble a bit of a false sound 
Straggle, stumble, shackled and bound 
In chains 

In chains, I'm in chains 
In chains, I'm in chains 

You've got me dying for you 
Its you that I'm living through 
You've got me praying to you 
Saying to you anything you want me to 
You've got me reaching for you 
My souls beseeching me too 
You've got me singing to you 
Bringing to you anything you ask me to 

I’m in chains 

In chains, I'm in chains 
In chains, I'm in chains 
In chains, I'm in chains
