[Verse 1]

C
You been hurt and you're all cried out you say
F                                                                                  C
You walk down the street pushing people outta your way

You packed your bags and all alone you wanna ride
F
You don't want nothing, don't need no one by your side
                                    C                                            G
You're walking tough, baby but you're walking blind
                             F
To the ties that bind

[Chorus]

                      C   | G | F
The ties that bind
                        C G                        F   | F G | C
Now you can't break the ties that bind

[Verse 2]

C
Cheap romance, it's all just a crutch
F                                                                 C
You don't want nothing that anybody can touch

You're so afraid of being somebody's fool
F
Not walking tough, baby not walking cool
                                C                                       G
You walk cool, but darling, can you walk the line
                                      F
And face the ties that bind

[Chorus]

                     C  | G | F
The ties that bind
                        C G                        F   | F G | C
Now you can't break the ties that bind

[Bridge]

      G                            Am          F                     G
Oh I, I'd rather feel the hurt inside, yes I would darling
                                                 Am               F
Than know the emptiness your heart must hide
                     C                             G
Yes I would darling, yes I would darling,
                   F G
Yes I would baby

[Sax Solo]

[Verse 3]

D
You sit and wonder just who's gonna stop the rain
G                                                                         D
Who'll ease the sadness, who's gonna quiet the pain

It's a long dark highway and a thin white line
G
Connecting baby your heart to mine
                                     D                                       A
We're running now but darling we will stand in time
                                 G
To face the ties that bind

[Chorus/Outro]

                      D | A | G
The ties that bind
                        D A                         G
Now you can't break the ties that bind
                 D A                           G
You can't forsake the ties that bind
              A     D | D G | D
Whoa, whoa, oh
