Long And Heavy Chain Lyrics - Charlie Landsborough

Your hunger after money 

Your parents agree 

The things you don't require 

You kid yourself you need 

Neglect the flower of love 

Give your worship to the weed 

Your just adding links to a long and heavy chain 

The selfishness that drives 

So much of what you do 

That a fixes your attention 

Completely up on you 

Your record is take away much more than your due 

Your just adding links to a long and heavy chain 

A heavy chain gets longer all the time 

What should be easy going 

Turns into a mountain climb 

A heavy chain gets heavier 

Day by day 

It keeps you anchored to the ground 

So that your heart cant fly a way 

The whiskey and the women 

You use to blow your mind 

Are deadly on their own 

And double deadly when combined 

They satisfy your senses but leave your soul behind 

Your just adding links to a long and heavy chain 

A heavy chain gets longer all the time 

What should be easy going 

Turns into a mountain climb 

The heavy chain gets heavier 

Day by day 

It keeps you anchored to the ground 

So that your heart cant fly a way 

A heavy chain gets longer all the time 

What should be easy going 

Turns into a mountain climb 

A heavy chain gets heavier 

Day by day 

It keeps you anchored to the ground 

So that your heart cant fly a way 

Your hunger after money 

The whiskey and the women 

It's a long and heavy chain 

Such a long and heavy chain
