[Verse 1]
---------------------
C#          C#                    G#
  Well it's been ten years, and a thousand tears
    F#                     C#
And look at the mess I'm in
                    G#
A broken nose and a broken heart,
   F#                 C#
An empty bottle of gin
                     G#
Well I sit and I pray
      F#                C#
In my broken down Chevrolet
                           G#
While I'm singin' to myself
        F#                C#
There's got to be another way

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
          C#         G#
Take away,  take away
      F#                     C#
Take away this ball and chain
                      G#
I'm lone ly and I'm tired
      F#                      C#
And I can't take any more pain
                    G#
Take away, take away
      F#             C#
Never to return again
                    G#      F#
Take away, take away  take away
                        C#
Take away this ball and chain

[Verse 2]
---------------------
C#                  C#                 G#
  Well I've searched  and I've searched
   F#                   C#
To find the perfect life
                      G#
A brand new car and a brand new suit
  F#                   C#
I even got me a little wife
                        G#
But wherever I have gone
      F#                  C#
I was sure to find myself there
                       G#
You can run all your life
          F#   C#
But not go  anywhere

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
          C#         G#
Take away,  take away
      F#                     C#
Take away this ball and chain
                   G#
I'm sick and I'm tired
      F#                      C#
And I can't take any more pain
                    G#
Take away, take away
      F#             C#
Never to return again
                    G#      F#
Take away, take away  take away
                        C#
Take away this ball and chain

[Verse 3]
---------------------
C#              C#               G#
  Well I'll pass  the bar on the way
      F#              C#
To my dingy hotel room
               G#
I spent all my money
     F#                             C#
Been drinkin' since a half past noon
                          G#
I'll wake there in the mornin'
   F#                      C#
Or maybe in the county jail
                          G#
Times are hard getting harder
            F#                   C#
I'm born to lose and destined to fail

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
          C#         G#
Take away,  take away
      F#                     C#
Take away this ball and chain
                      G#
I'm lone ly and I'm tired
      F#                      C#
And I can't take any more pain
                    G#
Take away, take away
      F#             C#
Never to return again
                    G#      F#
Take away, take away  take away
