Pretty straight forward, this one- 3 chords, with some subtle picking variations once you nail it. Be sure to use a Texan accent!

CHORUS

D                    G

Take 'em away, take 'em away Lord!

D                            A

Take away these chains from me!

D                                      G

My heart is broken 'cos my spirit's not free,

D                                    A

Lord, take away these chains from me!

Verse 1:

D                                              G

Some birds' feathers are too bright to be caged

D                                                      A

I know I'm not that colourful, but a bird just the same

D                                               G

Open up your gate now, let me put down my load

D                                           A

So I can feel at ease and go back to my home.
