Chains (チェインズ, Cheinzu) is the 16th studio album by Japanese singer/songwriter Yōko Oginome.

It features the singles "Look Up to the Sky", "From My Garden" and a Japanese-language cover of Alison Limerick's "Make It on My Own". It was Oginome's last studio release before her marriage to tennis player Ryuso Tsujino in 2001.
