Break This Chain - John Michael Montgomery

It’s been handed down for generations

From my grandpa to my dad on to me

All my life I’ve been shackled to a bottle

I never knew what it was like to be free

It’s time to break this chain that’s been holdin' me down

Leave it layin' on the ground

It’s time to make a change, I’ve caused enough pain

Lord, won’t you help me break this chain

I give you thanks for givin' me a reason

And a wife with forgiveness in her smile

Oh I want these two hands to be rock steady

As she’s handin' me our newborn baby child

It’s time to break this chain that’s been holdin' me down

Leave it layin' on the ground

It’s time to make a change, I’ve caused enough pain

Lord, won’t you help me break this chain

It’s time to make a change, I’m tired of this pain

Lord, won’t you help me break this chain

You made the sunshine and the rain

And you can wash away this pain
