I Was in Chains

I was in chains

Chained to my love

Lying sleeping

Below the silver trees

Then up comes Davey and says

You must be running boy

Now I must fly

Now I must fly

First to my darling

Down in the valley

I cried madly

Hey I here at your door

She says John John

Now be gone from my door

You and your misery

I taste no more

I was in chains

And bound for Australia

Dreaming wildly

About my life before

Of my distrust

All across the dreadful ocean

And of my true love

I lay no more

And of my true love

I lay no more

I was in chains

And bound for Australia

Dreaming wildly

About my life before

Of my distrust

All across the dreadful ocean

And of my true love

I lay no more

And of my true love

I lay no more

The future before me
