Ball & Chain Chords

(ver. 1)
Paul Overstreet
G    C                                 G
Back when we made our plans to tie the knot 
   C                                G
My friends they all laughed at me a lot 
     C                                    G
They slapped my back and told me how they thought I was insane 
           A7                       D
They said “Son, you’re too young to wear that ball and chain 

         C                                   G 
But love don't feel like a ball and chain to me 
C                 G                  A        D    
When I'm close to you my heart feels wild and free 
C                             G (walk down)  Em
If you are my jailer, darlin’ throw away the key 
     C                 D                 G  
Love don't feel like a ball and chain to me 
     C                 D
Love don't feel like a ball and chain 
   G (walk down)     Em
It don't feel like a ball and chain 
     C                 D                 G 
Love don't feel like a ball and chain to me 


Well I still see my single friends from time to time 
And they ask me how it feels to walk the line 
Well I tell 'em it feels better than I ever dreamed it would 
And I would not trade places with em’ even if I could 

         C                                   G 
But love don't feel like a ball and chain to me 
C                 G                  A        D    
When I'm close to you my heart feels wild and free 
C                             G (walk down)  Em
If you are my jailer, darlin’ throw away the key 
     C                 D                 G  
Love don't feel like a ball and chain to me 

Bridge:
     D
Well if it is a crime for a man to love his wife
C     
Throw that old book at me give me 99 to life 
D
And I'll spend every minute every hour every day 
Em                  C               D
Holding you close I don't wanta get away
