Am Em7sus4/B C D
Well, today a friend told me this sorry tale
As he stood there trembling and turning pale
He said each day's harder to get on the scale sort of
Like Jacob Marley's chain 
Am Em7sus4/B C D
But it's not like life's such a veil of tears
It's just full of thoughts that act as souvenirs
For those tiny blunders made in yesteryears
That comprise Jacob Marley's chain 
Well, I had a little metaphor to state my case
It encompassed the condition of the human race
But to my dismay, it left without a trace
Except for the sound of Jacob Marley's chain.
Am Em7sus4/B C D 3x
    
Am Em7sus4/B C D
Now there is no story left for me to tell
So I think I'd rather just go on to hell
Where there's a snowball's chance that the personnel
Might help to carry Jacob Marley's chain 
Down to carry Jacob Marley's chain
Am Em7sus4/B C D
Down to carry Jacob Marley's chain
Am Em7sus4/B C D 2x
