The Ozark Mountain Daredevils
(I Threw Away) the Chains
I found a way to the mountain
And I'll show you if you want to come along
In the eyes, yeah, of my woman
There's a truth that I've been seeking for so long

I threw away the chains
I threw away the chains
I threw away the chains
That had my very soul

Now my love is all around me
And it looks like that I have finally found the door
I was down, yeah, feelin' lonely
I was drowning but I could not find the shore

I threw away the chains
I threw away the chains
I threw away the chains
That had my very soul
