1.     Can't shake these chains, it's driving me crazy,

C       D         Em                                       D

    circle the drain, it's the way that God made me.

C            D         Em                          C

    I've made mistakes, I've got no brakes,

                             D

    start where we left off in oblivion.

C                             D                          Em

    It's needles and pins, and I'm cavin' in, but you're my medicine !

I need you tonight to bring me back to life, you're my wake up calling.

   C                               D                                          Em         G

Running out of time, staring at the signs, will you break my falling.

C                         D                          Em

    when I breathe you in there's somethin' that's missin',

C                            D                             Em

    I'm back here again, just like an old friend,

                             D

    start where we left off in oblivion.

C                             D                          Em

    It's needles and pins, and I'm cavin' in, but you're my medicine !
