Ray Charles - Take These Chains From My Heart (Official Audio)

The official audio of Ray Charles' "Take These Chains From My Heart" from the boxset TRUE GENIUS
“Take These Chains From My Heart”, originally written and recorded by the legendary Hank Williams, has been covered many times, by many artists. But perhaps the most significant is Ray Charles’ cover, from his 1962 iconic album, Modern Sounds In Country & Western Music Vol. 2. Charles’ take on country music would forever change the genre. His version of the song peaked at #8 on the Billboard Hot 100, #7 on the R&B Chart, and #5 on the UK Charts in 1963.

LYRICS:
(Take these chains from my heart and set me free)
Take these chains from my heart and set me free
You've grown cold and no longer care for me
All my faith in you is gone but the heartaches linger on
Take these chains from my heart and set me free
Take these tears from my eyes and let me see
Just a spark of the love that used to be
If you love somebody new, let me find a new love, too
Take these chains from my heart and set me free
Give my heart just a word of sympathy (sympathy)
Be as fair to my heart as you can be (you can be)
Then if you no longer care for the love that's beating there
Take these chains from my heart and set me free
Take these chains from my heart and set me free (set me free)

Could someone please come to the rescue of the great Ray Charles ("Uncle Ray"), as he makes a passionate appeal in this hit "Take these chains from my heart.'

[@vikkismith7497]

This hit from Ray Charles went to #8 on the Top 40 charts. It went to #7 on the Rhythm & Blues charts and to #5 in the United Kingdom. It would finish at #81 for the year, 1963. We are counting down the Top 100 songs of the year, 1963, and we won't stop until we get to the top. Who will be #1? Will Mr. Acker Bilk repeat? Or will a new act take the torch? Stay tuned.
