Every Man Has His Chain Lyrics - Donovan Leitch

From the album best of donovan ii 

I had a dream as daylight touched the sky 

As breezes chased along the winter lane. 

I had a dream as dreams alone I dreamt 

Has every man his chain, 

Has every man his chain ? 

A negro hid beneath a face of blood 

And is there really anyone to blame ? 

I marveled at the beauty of children's minds. 

Has every man his chain, 

Has every man his chain ? 

I saw a beach of sand beside the sea 

And there before me I saw every grain 

And I wondered, well, it was best this way 

Every man has his chain, 

Every man has his chain.
