[Verse]
Am        E7/G#     C/G   D9/F#
Won't you take one link from this misery chain?
Am      E7/G#   C/G      F#7              F             F7sus4 F          
Keep it to remind you of a long forgotten time or a place
            Fm            C               Am
So that you recognize its shape when it's near
Dm                     D#6b5     Fm           (C*)
Any time or place this misery chain should appear
 
[Verse]
Am        E7/G#     C/G   D9/F#
Take the locks and shackles and let all of it down
Am      E7/G#   C/G       F#7          F             F7sus4 F  
Shine a light upon every shadow, every acre of ground
           Fm          C             Am
The hidden corners on in the whole around
Dm                     D#6b5     Fm            (Am*)    
Any where you feel this misery chain should be found

[Chorus]
F                         Fm            G#
When we're gone, and it's all said and done
          C
What will we leave
Dm                      Fm          E    Em
Stories told, will they speak of us well God only knows
     G               E7/G#
What those words will be
 
[Verse]
Am        E7/G#     C/G   D9/F#
And if I should fall, from the top of the world
Am      E7/G#   C/G       F#7          F             F7sus4 F  
To the depths below, so far below where our belief could exist
             Fm            C            Am
Down further still will be, the one who hides the key
Dm                             D#6b5   G         C   C/B  (Am*)
And there's to try to put these misery chains on me
 
[Chorus]
F                         Fm            G#
When we're gone, and it's all said and done
          C
What will we leave
Dm                      Fm          E    Em
Stories told, will they speak of us well God only knows
     G               E7/G#
What those words will be
 
[Verse]
Am        E7/G#     C/G   D9/F#
Won't you take one link, from this misery chain?
Am      E7/G#   C/G     F#7                F    F7sus4 F  
Keep it to remind you, of a long forgotten time or a place
             Fm            C            Am
So that you recognize it, 'till it's understood
Dm                           D#6b5  Fm    Am
And that every trace of this misery chain is gone for good
Dm                       D#6b5  G        (C*)   Am
