G G Em D/F#
I couldn't help but wonder what he was thinking
G/C G
As he stared out the window through the sky
G Em D/F#
It seemed he was taking his last look at freedom
G/C Em
>From the hopeless, longing look in his eyes
D G/C
There were chains on his hands and chains on his feet
Em D G/C
And as I passed him by, the thought came to me
G G Em
Remember your chains
D G/C
Remember the prison that once held you
Am C/B C D G
Before the love of God broke through
G Em D
Remember the place you were without grace
G/C Bm7 Am
When you see where you are now
C/B G/C
Remember your chains
Am C/B G/C D G D C
And remember your chains are gone
There's no one more thankful to sit at the table
Than the one who best remembers hunger's pain
And no heart loves greater than the one that is able
To recall the time when all it knew was shame
The wings of forgiveness will take us to heights never seen
But the wisest ones, they will never lose sight
Of where they were set free
Love set them free
(chorus) (instead of G at the end of the chorus, play G/C to lead to the
bridge)
G
And in the light of all that we've been forgiven of
A C
We will find our hearts fuller and freer
D
To give and receive God's love
(chorus) but after "when you see where you are now" play:
C/B G/C
Remember your chains
Am C/B G/C
Oh, remember your chains
Am C/B G/C
When you remember your chains
G
Remember your chains are gone
G
Imagine what your life would be
If Jesus had not set you free
G Em G/C
Remember your chains are gone
G
Remember all that once held you
Before the love of God broke through
G Em
Remember your chains
G/C D G
And remember your chains are gone
You gotta remember your chains
G Em G
And remember your chains are gone
