CAPO: 4th Fret
[INTRO:] C Am C
[VERSE 1:]
Ring them bells ye heathen, from the city that dreams
Ring them bells from the sanctuaries, 'cross the [G]valleys and streams
For they're [F]deep and they're wide[C] and the world's on it's side [F]
And [C]time is a-running backwards and [G]so is the [C]bride[Am][C]
[VERSE 2:]
Ring them bells, St. Peter, where the four winds blow
Ring them bells with an iron hand, so the people will [G]know
Oh, it's [F]rush hour now[C] on the wheel of the plough [F]
And the [C]sun is going down upon the [G]sacred c[C]ow[Am][C]
[VERSE 3:]
Ring them bells sweet Martha, for the poor man's son
Ring them bells so the world will know that god is [G]none
For the [F]shepherd is asleep[C] where the willows weep [F]
And the [C]mountains are filled with [G]lost sheep[C]
[BRIDGE:]
Ring them [Am]bells, for the blind and the [C]deaf
~ Am C
Ring them bells, for those who are left
~ Am C/G
Ring them bells, for the chosen few
Who will judge the [F]many, when the game is [D]through
Ring them [F]bells, for the time that [C]flies
For the child who [Dm7]cries, when innocence [G]dies
[VERSE 4:]
[C]Ring them bells, St. Catherine, from the top of the roof
Ring them from the fortress for the lilies that [G]bloom
For the [F]lines that are [C]long and the fighting is [F]strong
And they're [C]breaking down the distance between [G]right and [C]wrong
