Verse 1
      Em7       Am7         Em7
One night as I lay on my pillow
Am7                        Em7
Moonlight as bright as the dawn
Em7      Am7        Em7
I saw a man come a-walkin'
Am7                  Em7
He had a long chain on
Em7         Am7      Em7
I heard his chains a-clankin'
Am7                  Em7
They made a mournful sound
Em7      Am7       Em7
Welded around his body
Am7                 Em7
Draggin' along the ground

Chorus
Em
He had a long chain on
Em
He had a long chain on
Em                   Am
He had a long chain on

Verse 2
      Em7       Am7         Em7
He stood beside my window
Am7                 Em7
He looked at me and he said
      Em7       Am7         Em7
"I am so tired and hungry
Am7                    Em7
Give me a bite of your bread"
      Em7       Am7         Em7
He didn't look like a robber
Am7                    Em7
He didn't look like a thief
     Em7         Am7         Em7
His voice was as soft as the moonlight
   Am7                    Em7
A face full of sorrow and grief

Chorus
Em
He had a long chain on
Em
He had a long chain on
Em                   Am
He had a long chain on

Verse 3
Em7     Am7    Em7
I went into my kitchen
Am7                        Em7
Fetched him a bowl full of meat
Em7           Am7            Em7
A drink and a pan of cold biscuits
Am7                       Em7
That's what I gave him to eat
Em7            Am7       Em7
Though he was tired and hungry
  Am7                        Em7
A bright light came over his face
Em7           Am7         Em7
He bowed his head in the moonlight
Am7                 Em7
He said a beautiful grace

Chorus
Em
He had a long chain on
Em
He had a long chain on
Em                  Am
He had a long chain on

Verse 4
Em7      Am7        Em7
I got my hammer and chisel
Am7                Em7
Offered to set him free
Em7          Am7         Em7
He looked at me and said softly
Am7                         Em7
"I guess we had best let it be"
Em7         Am7          Em7
When he had finished his supper
   Am7                  Em7
He thanked me again and again
Em7              Am7               Em7
Though it's been years since I've seen him
Am7                         Em7
Still hear him draggin' his chain

Chorus
Em
He had a long chain on
Em
He had a long chain on
Em                  Am
He had a long chain on
