G D G C
Far between sundown's finish, and midnight's broken toll
G C D G
We ducked inside the doorway, thunder crashin'
D G C
As majestic bells of bolts struck shadows in the sounds
G D riff G
Seeming to be the chimes of freedom flashin'
D G
Flashing for the warriors whose strength is not to fight
C G Am D
Flashing for the refugees in the unarmed road of flight
G D G C
And for each and every underdog soldier in the night
G C D G GC D G
And we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashin'
D G C
In the city's melted furnace, unexpectedly we watched
G D riff G D
With faces hidden as the walls were tightening
G D G C
As the echo of the wedding bells before the blowin' rain
G D riff G
Dissolved into the bells of the lighting
D G
Tolling for the rebel, tolling for the rake
C G Am D
Tolling for the luckless, the abandoned and forsaked
G D G C
Tolling for the outcast, burnin' constantly at stake
G C D G
riff G
And we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashin'
G D C G
Through the mad mystic hammering of the wild ripping hail
G C D G
The sky cracked its poems in naked wonder
G D riff G
That the clinging of the church bells blew far into the breeze
D G
Leaving only bells of lightning and its thunder
C G Am G
Striking for the gentle, striking for the kind
G D G C
Striking for the guardians and protectors of the mind
G D G C
An' the unpawned painter behind his rightful time
G C D G GC D G
An' we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing.
D G C
In the wild cathedral evening the rain unraveled tales

G D riff G D
For the disrobed faceless forms of no position
G D G C
Tolling for the tongues with no place to bring their thoughts
G D riff G
All down in taken-for-granted situations
D G
Tolling for the deaf an' blind, tolling for the mute
C G Am D
For the mistreated, mateless mother, the mistitled prostitute
G D G C
For the misdemeanor outlaw, chased an' cheated by pursuit
riff G G C D G
An' we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing.
G D C G
Even though a cloud's white curtain in a far-off corner flashed
G C D G
An' the hypnotic splattered mist was slowly lifting
D G C
Electric light still struck like arrows, fired but for the ones
G D riff G
Condemned to drift or else be kept from drifting
D G
Tolling for the searching ones, on their speechless, seeking trail
C G Am D
For the lonesome-hearted lovers with too personal a tale
G D G C
An' for each unharmful, gentle soul misplaced inside a jail
G C D G GC D G
An' we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing.
D G C
Starry-eyed an' laughing as I recall when we were caught
G D riff G D
Trapped by no track of hours for they hanged suspended
G D G C
As we listened one last time an' we watched with one last look
G D riff G
Spellbound an' swallowed 'til the tolling ended
D G
Tolling for the aching ones whose wounds cannot be nursed
C G Am D
For the countless confused, accused, misused, strung-out ones an' worse
G D C G
An' for every hung-up person in the whole wide universe
riff G G C D G
An' we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing.
