Verse 1
One night (E minor) as I (A minor) lay on my pillow, (E minor)
Moonlight (A minor) as bright as the dawn (E minor)
I saw a man (A minor) come a walking, (E minor)
(A minor) He had a long chain on. (E minor)
I heard his chains (A minor) a clankin', (E minor) (A minor)
They made a mournful sound, (E minor)
Welded around (A minor) his body, (E minor)
(A minor) Draggin' along the ground.
(E minor)
