Am             Dm Em/B Dm   E
When I fall, I         fall hard.
Dm       Dm Em/B Dm     E
My body b--------ruises at your touch,
   Am                 E
my  ankles bear these lover's scars.
    Am                    Dm Em/B Dm        E
The  weight is heavy, but         necessary.
       Dm            Dm Em/B Dm                  Am E Am
You'll  never change          my ball and chain.

Chorus
Dm                    Am
My ball and chain you  will remain.

You've always been my ball and chain.

My lover stands         upon the shore,
     Am               E
it's me she should be waiting for.
    Am                 Dm Em/B Dm               E
The  distance binds us          locked in twain.

You will remain         my ball and chain.
