G    C                                 G 
Back when we made our plans to tie the knot  
   C                                G 
My friends they all laughed at me a lot  
     C                                    G 
They slapped my back and told me how they thought I was insane  
           A7                       D 
They said ?Son, you?re too young to wear that ball and chain  
 
         C                                   G  
But love don't feel like a ball and chain to me  
C                 G                  A        D     
When I'm close to you my heart feels wild and free  
C                             G (walk down)  Em 
If you are my jailer, darlin? throw away the key  
     C                 D                 G   
Love don't feel like a ball and chain to me  
     C                 D 
Love don't feel like a ball and chain  
   G (walk down)     Em 
It don't feel like a ball and chain  
     C                 D                 G  
Love don't feel like a ball and chain to me  
 
 
Well I still see my single friends from time to time  
And they ask me how it feels to walk the line  
Well I tell 'em it feels better than I ever dreamed it would  
And I would not trade places with em? even if I could  
 
         C                                   G  
But love don't feel like a ball and chain to me  
C                 G                  A        D     
When I'm close to you my heart feels wild and free  
C                             G (walk down)  Em 
If you are my jailer, darlin? throw away the key  
     C                 D                 G   
Love don't feel like a ball and chain to me  
 
Bridge: 
     D 
Well if it is a crime for a man to love his wife 
C      
Throw that old book at me give me 99 to life  
D 
And I'll spend every minute every hour every day  
Em                  C               D 
Holding you close I don't wanta get away

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

Refrão:
D                A
Take away, take away
       G                  D
Take away this ball and chain
D                    A
I'm lonely and I'm tired
        G                  D
And I can't take any more pain
D                A
Take away, take away
      G           D
Never to return again
D                A
Take away, take away
       G                             D
Take away, take away this ball and chain

D  A  G  D (x2)

D                              A
Well I've searched and I've searched
     G                D
To find the perfect life
D                       A
D brand new car and a brand new suit
        G                A
I even got me a little wife
D                    A
But whenever I have gone
        G                    D
I was sure to find myself there
D                      A
You can run all your life
         G     D
But not go anywhere

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

Versión 5 - Ball and Chain (Letra y acordes)
Intro: E  G

E
people listen up don't stand to close
     B
I got something that you all should know,
All the lies, all the lies they told to me
From a little part of history, see
E
I was always taught that boy meets girl
B
Fall in love get married and forget the world nine months later,
sweet babys on the way
A
Kiss 'em on the cheek and lifes ok

         E       A             E       A
I don't feel no pain, I don't have no time
    E              A                 B    C
To listen, to conflicting points of view, oh
E                     G       B
Its a crazy world to live alone
E                  G
Ball and chain I call my own.

A banana na nan

( E  G ) (4x)

E
People's got back don't stand too near, got know
        B
I've got something that you all should hear, holy,
Matrimonys not for me
Rather die alone in misery
E
I was always taught that boy meets girl
B
Fall in love, get married and forget the world nine months later
sweet babys on the way
A
Isn't that what they used to say?

        E         A
With a girl you knew,
         E         A
And the bonds we grew.
     E             A          B   C
Oh, turned into a ball and chain.
    E             G          B
I step into the great unknown,
   E                G          B
A ball and chain I call my own.

I step into the great unknown,
   E                G          B
A ball and chain I call my own.

Huh huh huh huh… because
E
marriage doesn't work in the world today,
B
It's an institution that is in decay, and if I
Have love I wish to portray
I will surely find another way
        E
because I was always taught that boy meets girl,
B
Fall in love get married and forget the world
Nine months later the sweet baby's on the way
A
Kiss him on the cheek and life's okay

        E         A
With a girl you knew,
         E         A
And the bonds we grew.

    E             G          B
I step into the great unknown,
   E                G          B
A ball and chain I call my own.
