Johnny Cash & Willie Nelson (VH1 Storytellers)
Unchained Lyrics:
[Cash:] I wanna do the title song from my last CD. It's called, "Unchained."

[Applause.]

[Cash:]
I have been ungrateful,
I've been unwise.
Restless from the cradle,
Now I realize,
It's so hard to see the rainbow,
Through glasses dark as these.
Maybe I'll be able,
From now on, on my knees.

Oh-oh-oh-oh, I am weak.
Oh, I know I am vain.
Take this weight from me,
Let my spirit be unchained.

Old man swearin' at the sidewalk,
And I'm overcome.
Seems that we' both forgotten,
[ Find more Lyrics on http://mp3lyrics.org/U9W2 ]
Forgotten to go home.
Have I seen an angel?
Or have I seen a ghost?
Where's that Rock of Ages,
When I need it most?

Oh-oh-oh-oh, I am weak.
Oh, Lord, I know I am vain.
Take this weight from me,
Let my spirit be unchained.

[Applause.]
