Lyrics

If you’ve been walk ing the same old road for miles and miles,

if you’ve been hear ing the same old voice tell the same old lies,

if you’re try ing to fill the same old holes in side,

when there’s a bet ter life,

there’s a bet ter life.

If you’ve got pain,

He’s a (F)pain tak er.

If you feel lost,

He’s a way mak er.

If you need free dom or sav ing, He’s a (F)pris on shak ing Sav ior.

If you’ve got chains,

He’s a chain break er.

We’ve all searched for the light of day in the dead of night.

if We’ve all found our the selves worn out from the same old fight.

We’ve all run ing to things we know old just ain’t right

when there’s a bet ter life,

there’s a bet ter life.

If you’ve got pain,

He’s a (F)pain tak er.

If you feel lost,

He’s a way mak er.

If you need free dom or sav ing, He’s a (F)pris on shak ing Sav ior.

If you’ve got chains,

He’s a chain break er.

We’ve all searched er.

If you be lieve it,

if you re ceive it,

if you can feel it, some bod y (Am)tes ti fy.

If you be lieve it,

if you re ceive it,

if you can feel it, some bod y (Am)tes ti fy, tes (F)ti fy.

If you be lieve it,

if you re ceive (F)it,

If you can feel it, some bod y (Am)tes ti fy.

If you’ve got pain,

He’s a (F)pain tak er.

If you feel lost,

He’s a way mak er.

If you need free dom or sav ing, He’s a (F)pris on shak ing Sav ior.

If you’ve got chains,

He’s a chain break er.

Oh, if you need free dom or sav ing, He’s a (F)pris on shak ing Sav ior.

If you’ve got chains,

well, He’s a chain break er.
