Verse 1
G
D
Far between sundown's finish
G
C
an' midnight's broken toll
G
C
We ducked inside the doorway,
D
G
D
thunder crashing
G
D
As majestic bells of bolts struck
G
C
shadows in the sounds
G
C
Seeming to be the chimes
D
G
of freedom flashing
D
Flashing for the warriors whose
G
strength is not to fight
C
G
Am
Flashing for the refugees on the
G
D
An' for each an' ev'ry underdog
G
C
soldier in the night
G
C
D
An' we gazed upon the chimes of freedom

Verse 2
G
D
Through the city's melted furnace,
G
C
unexpectedly we watched
G
D
With faces hidden as the walls
G
D
were tightening
G
D
As the echo of the wedding bells
G
C
before the blowin' rain
G
C
Dissolved into the bells
D
G
of the lightning
D
G
Tolling for the rebel, tolling for the rake
C
G
Tolling for the luckless,
Am
D
G
the abandoned an' forsaked
D
Tolling for the outcast,
G
C
burnin' constantly at stake
G
C
An' we gazed upon the chimes

Verse 3
G
D
Through the mad mystic hammering
G
C
of the wild ripping hail
G
C
The sky cracked its poems
D
G
D
in naked wonder
G
D
That the clinging of the church bells
G
C
blew far into the breeze
G
C
Leaving only bells of lightning
D
G
and its thunder
D
Striking for the gentle,
C
G
striking for the kind
C
G
Striking for the guardians and
Am
D
protectors of the mind
G
D
An' the poet and the painter
G
C
far behind his rightful time
G
C
An' we gazed upon the chimes
D
G
of freedom flashing

Verse 4
G
D
In the wild cathedral evening
G
C
the rain unraveled tales
G
C
For the disrobed faceless forms
D
G
D
of no position
G
D
Tolling for the tongues with no
G
C
place to bring their thoughts
G
C
All down in taken- for- granted
D
G
situations
D
Tolling for the deaf an' blind,
C
G
For the mistreated, mateless mother,
Am
D
the mistitled prostitute
G
D
For the misdemeanor outlaw,
G
C
chaineded an' cheated by pursuit
G
C
An' we gazed upon the chimes
D
G
of freedom flashing

Verse 5
G
D
Even though a cloud's white curtain
G
C
in a far- off corner flared
G
D
An' the hypnotic splattered mist
C
D
G
D
was slowly lifting
G
D
Electric light still struck like arrows,
G
C
fired but for the ones
G
C
Condemned to drift or else
D
G
be kept from drifting
D
Tolling for the searching ones,
G
on their speechless, seeking trail
C
G
For the lonesome- hearted lovers
Am
D
with too personal a tale
G
D
An' for each un harmful, gentle
G
C
soul misplaced inside a jail
G
C
An' we gazed upon the chimes of

Verse 6
G
D
G
Starry- eyed an' laughing as I recall
G
C
Trapped by no track of hours for
D
G
D
they hanged suspended
G
D
As we listened one last time an'
G
C
we watched with one last look
G
C
Spellbound an' swallowed
D
G
'til the tolling ended
D
Tolling for the aching whose
G
wounds cannot be nursed
C
G
For the countless confused, accused,
Am
D
misused, strung- out ones an' worse
G
D
An' for every hung- up person in
G
C
the whole wide universe
G
C
An' we gazed upon the chimes
D
G
of freedom flashing
