Wolves At the Gate - Slaves

I ^Bmsaw these chains locked ^Aon my wrists Ar^Gound my neck no ^F#shackles missed I^Bm'd tried to shake them o^Aff and flee No^Gwhere to go with^F#out a key

Aw^Bmoke my eyes drew the fir^Ast breath New^G to the world bu^F#t not to death Th^Bmis plan devised in secre^Acy Ma^Gy take my life o^F#r set me free No^Bm more to work this simpl^Ae life To^G toil only met w^F#ith strife Th^Bme evening still and pass^Aed the sun Th^Ge night crept in^F# my chance to run ^F#

I wait for ^Bmdark! ^{A G} I^F# wait for ^Bmdark! ^{A G} (I wait^F# for dark!) ^BmNo looking^A back I'm running ^GI'm running ^F#out of sight

^BmNo looking^A back I'm running ^GRunning into^F# the night

My^Bm feet be quick for this ^Aracing heart Co^Gme morning's lig^F#ht will the chasing start Wi^Bmth the fear of pursuit c^Aomes a fear of the flight An^Gd if I stop they^F# will shoot so I continue to hide (F#) In the cover of the night

Th^Bme morning bright all dar^Akness gone I s^Gee the distance ^F#fade I ^Bmtake to flight my fears ^Awithdraw My^G heart is now be^F#trayed

^BmNot a^F slave^G to man ^F#anymore! N^Bmot a s^Flave to...

^BmSet me free ^BmSet me free ^GHammer these chains and ^F#Set me free!

^BmBreak these chains ^BmBreak these chains ^GUnbind my hands and ^F#Pardon me!

Ran ^Bmall this way with the ho^Ape this pain would N^Gow release Fi^F#nally cease Wh^Bmat is this freedom if I ^Ahaven't Ha^Gven't peace Ha^F#ven't peace?

Serp^Bment you lied and told me^A to run I h^Gaven't found rep^F#ose for I still am undone Th^Bmis isn't life! Th^Ais can't be it!

I'v^Ge run so far away yet Non^F#e of the pieces will fit I c^Bmouldn't see I sh^Aould have known

Th^Gis peace abounds at^F# my master's home Now ^Bmmy heart be still or the^Ase feet will fall All f^Gor the will of t^F#he master's call

Th^Bme morning bright all dar^Akness gone An^Gd not afraid ^F# Sh^Bmown the true light again^Ast the dawn My^G debt has now be^F#en paid ^BmI was ^Alost ^Gto s^F#ave ^BmFor I'^Am the^G mas^F#ter's slave

No^Bm looking back I'm runnin^Ag Ru^Gnning with all m^F#y might No^Bm looking back I'm runnin^Ag Ru^Gnning to the tru^F#e light

I^Bm saw these chains fall t^Ao my feet I s^Gtand amazed at t^F#his work complete T^Bmhese chains not Yours, t^Ahey were my own "No^Gw run no more My^F# son, come home"
