	A 'live' version of this song is on the b-side of the "By The Way" CD-5. This is the studio version. Is that Dave Edmunds sitting in? Unconfirmed rumors of George Thorogood covering this live...but you can't believe everything you read.

	Lyrics STRANGLED BY THE CHAIN OF EVENTS Who put the cream in my coffee Who poached the yolk in my eggs I said to the waitress "You know how I hate this" She slapped me once then turned and walked away So I went speeding down the highway Begged forgiveness from the cop who saw my plates He said, "Not on your life, That waitress was my wife" The next thing they were locking me away Before I turned around one thing led to another I was finally in the open, now I've gotta run for cover My future was in front of me, now I don't know where it went I've been strangled by the chain of events That ol' chain Wrapped around my neck That ol' chain Sinking down like a deep sea wreck That ol' chain Has trapped me like a barbed-wire fence I've been strangled by the chain of events I had to go in for a check-up Had a lady doctor strip me to my shorts When she said, "It's good to see ya" I thought I had the wrong idea 'til she said, "Now, baby, tell me where it hurts" Well, I got to work a little late that day My boss said, "I hear you're feeling fine, But your doctor is my sister and I'm gonna be an uncle, mister And you've got 18 years of working overtime" Before I turned around one thing led to another I was finally in the open, now I've gotta run for cover My future was in front of me, now I don't know where it went I've been strangled by the chain of events That ol' chain Wrapped around my neck That ol' chain Sinking down like a deep sea wreck That ol' chain Has trapped me like a barbed-wire fence I've been strangled by the chain of events ©2002 Cole Shelly
