No More Chains

from Durango by The Coal Porters

/

lyrics

No more chains around my neck, Lord
No more chains to keep me beat
No more chains around my ankles
I’ll walk along a free man’s street

No more chains to weigh my arms down
No more chains to hold me back
No more chains to sound my capture
The air I breathe tastes mighty sweet

One of these days and that day’s arrivin’
One of these days full of joyful noise
The road to joy awaits my footprints
where Angels rock my soul to sleep

No more chains from dawn to dusk, Lord
No more chains now the whip don’t crack
No more chains a new day’s coming
I’ve come along way ain’t goin’ back

No more chains no more darkness
No more chains no more incomplete
My soul is one with the brightest Heaven
The air I breathe tastes mighty sweet
All souls are one with the Almighty Heaven
This air I breathe tastes mighty sweet
This air I breathe tastes mighty sweet
