[Verse 1]
Am G C
Sittin’ here beside the fire, sleepin’ like a child
G F
Warmed from your love, but in my mind
Dm C A# A
There’s somethin’ wrong, I can’t go on
Am G C
At the age of twenty-nine, I feel that I’ve re-signed
G F
No reason to live, slowly dyin’
Dm C A# A
Caught in a cage, our love has made
[Chorus]
A C F#m A D G
Love’s a jailer in my life, love’s twi-stin’ knife
D A D E
Is tearin’ my heart, a-part
A C F#m A D G
Love’s the chains that tie me down, in love you’ll drown
D A
It’s just like a stone
D A D A E
So strong, love is a jailer, so strong, love’s a jailer
[Verse 2]
Am G C
Can it be in all these years, there’s nothin’ left to keep
G F
No challenges call, just deep in-side
Dm C A# A
A girl in pain, to make a change
Am G C
Tell me what I have to do, should I turn and walk a-way
G F
And leave you a-lone, leave you cryin’
Dm C A# A
I’d never go, and hurt you so
[Chorus]
A C F#m A D G
Love’s a jailer in my life, love’s twi-stin’ knife
D A D E
Is tearin’ my heart, a-part
A C F#m A D G
Love’s the chains that tie me down, in love you’ll drown
D A
It’s just like a stone
D A D A E
So strong, love is a jailer, so strong, love’s a jailer
