Every Man Has His Chain - Donovan

I had a dream as daylight touched the sky

As breezes chased along the winter lane

I had a dream as dreams alone I dreamt

Has every man his chain

Has every man his chain?

A negro hid beneath a face of blood

And is there really anyone to blame?

I marveled at the beauty of children’s minds

Has every man his chain

Has every man his chain?

I saw a beach of sand beside the sea

And there before me I saw every grain

And I wondered, well, it was best this way

Every man has his chain

Every man has his chain
