[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][C][D]

[Verse 1]
[G]Why am
I chained to a [B]memory?
[Em]Why does the thought of you[Ebaug]
still [G]tor[Em]ture me?
[Em]When will I find[Ebaug]
[Baug]someone to [Em]set me [A]free?
So [Bm]I won't be [Em]chai[Am]ned to a memo[D]ry,
[G]mmm[C][Am][D]

[Verse 2]
[G]Why am I chained to the[B] hurt I knew?
[Em]Each day the t[Ebaug]hought of something
so [G]cruel [Em]to do
[Em]Where in this worl[Ebaug]d will
I [Em]escape from [A]you?
So [Bm]I won't be [Em]chai[Am]ned to
a [D]memory
[G][Dm][G]

[Verse 3]
[C]Your letters threw them on the fire
[Bm]Your pictures out the window
[Am]All that I could[D] find that
re[Em]minded me of you
I [A]threw them all [Am]away[D]

[Verse 4]
[G]I get up in the morning
I'm [B]pacing the floor
[Em]Like I'm expecti[Ebaug]ng you
[Em]to walk in the door
[Em]I keep forgett[Ebaug]ing I won't
