Pretenders - Back on the Chain Gang lyrics

[Pretenders - Back on the Chain Gang lyrics]

I found a picture of you, oh oh oh oh
What hijacked my world that night
To a place in the past we've been
Cast out of? oh oh oh oh
Now we're back in the fight

We're back on the train
Oh, back on the chain gang

A circumstance beyond our control
Oh oh oh oh
The phone, the TV, and the news of the world
Got in the house like a pigeon from hell
Oh oh oh oh threw sand in our eyes
And descended like flies

Put us back on the train
Oh, back on the chain gang

The powers that be that force us
To live like we do
Bring me to my knees when I
See what they've done to you
But, I'll die as I stand here today
Knowing that deep in my heart
They'll fall to ruin one day
For making us part

I found a picture of you, oh oh oh oh
Those were the happiest days of my life
Like a break in the battle was your part
Oh oh oh oh
In the wretched life of a lonely heart

Now we're back on the train
Oh, back on the chain gang
