Your chain probably is stuck somewhere on the back cogs...either wedged between the cogs and the wheel, or the cogs and the chainstays.

Get a rag, grab the chain, and yank it out from wherever it's stuck, put it on one of those back cogs (those are the things with teeth), and hand pedal the bike to get it in the right gear (the bike will do this automatically).

If the chain is off in the front...same procedure, except those are called chainrings.

Just a shot in the dark cause you didn't provide much information I would think the chain not being on the cogs would be fairly obvious (i sense alot of people nodding) so I'm gonna say you might have blown your freehub ...that's the thing that clicks when your freewheeling, if you pedal does the chain move and do the rear cogs move but the wheel doesn't? if so then ya definitely blew up your freehub....on the other hand if is just makes sick noises and don't go your chain and cogs are worn out replace them or in some cases of shitybike syndrome replace the wreck and save yourself the headaches.

You may have just changed to a too high gear. Gear down & check it out.

Or just check the chain & put it back on.'

You just need to put the chain back on. It's not that hard.
