CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: C F C F G C F C F C
It was Sunday [F]morn[C]ing [F]in our [G]town
And I [C]sat on my [F]steps [C]and I [F]stared at the [C]ground
~ Am G
And I bowed my head while they shuffled past
All the [C]saints being [F]called [C]to the [F]morning [G]mass
CHORUS:
And off in the [F]distance [C]there [F]rang a [C]bell
Way off in the [F]distance [C]there rang a bell
~ Am G
And it rang for the saints and the sinners as well
Way off in the [F]distance [C]there rang a bell
INTERLUDE: C F C F G C F C F C
I remember the [F]lessons [C]of [F]Sunday [G]school
And I [C]can't help but [F]think, [C]maybe [F]I'm the [C]fool
~ Am G
But I see no sign of a greater plan
Just the [C]joy and the [F]sorrow [C]of my [F]fellow [G]man
CHORUS:
And off in the [F]distance [C]there [F]rang a [C]bell
Way off in the [F]distance [C]there rang a bell
~ Am G
And it rang for the saints and the sinners as well
Way off in the [F]distance [C]there rang a bell
INSTRUMENTAL: C F C F G C F C F C ~ Am G C F C F C
BRIDGE:
And here we [F]stand while life rushes [G]past
Be[C]tween the [F]first [C]breath and the [G]last
And [C]here we [F]stand between East and [C]West
~ Am G
And here we stand between birth and death
N.C. F C F G
I was watching the news the other night
There was a [C]war on the [F]Left, there [C]was a [F]war on the [C]Right
~ Am G
And it's no surprise that it's us or them
It's a [C]long way from [F]heaven [C]to [F]Bethle[G]hem
CHORUS:
And off in the [F]distance [C]there [F]rang a [C]bell
Way off in the [F]distance [C]there rang a bell
~ Am G
And it rang for the saints and the sinners as well
