Intro 1
(B flat minor) (A flatsus4) (A flat major)
Verse 1
The birds they (D flat major) sang, at the break of day
Start again, (A flat7) I heard them say (D flat major) (D flat7)
Don't (F7) dwell on what has passed (B flat minor) away
Or what is (A flat7sus4) yet to be (A flat7)
Yeah, the wars (D flat major) they will be fought again
The holy (A flat7) dove, she will be (D flat major) caught again (D flat7)
(F7) Bought and sold and (B flat minor) bought again
The dove is (A flat7sus4) never free (A flat7)

Chorus 1
Ring the bells (G flat major) that (B major) still can (G flat major) ring
Forget your (B major) perfect offer (G flat major) ing
There is a (D flat major) crack, a (B major) crack in (G flat major) everything
That's how the light (E flat minor7) gets in
(A flat7sus4) (A flat7) (A flat7)
Verse 2
We asked for signs, (D flat major) the signs were sent
The birth betrayed, (A flat7) the marriage spent (D flat major) (D flat7)
Yeah, the (F7) widowhood of every gover (B flat minor) ment
Signs for all (A flat7sus4) to see (A flat major)
I can't run no (D flat major) more with that lawless crowd
While the kill (A flat7) ers in high places
say their prayers (D flat major) out loud (D flat7)
But they've (F7) summoned,
they've summoned up a (B flat minor) thundercloud
And they're going to hear from (A flat7sus4) me
(...ring, (A flat7) ring, ring)
Chorus 2
Ring the bells (G flat major) that still (B major) can ring (G flat major)
Forget your per (B major) fect offering (G flat major)
There is a (D flat major) crack, a crack (B major) in (G flat major) everything
That's how the light (E flat minor7) gets in
(A flat7sus4) (A flat7) (A flat7)
Verse 3
You can add up the (D flat major) parts
you won't have the sum
You can strike up the (A flat7) march,
there is no (D flat major) drum (D flat7)
Every heart, (F7) every heart to (B flat minor) love will come
But like a (A flat7sus4) refugee (...ring, (A flat7) ring, ring)
Chorus 3
Ring the bells (G flat major) that (B major) still can ring (G flat major)
Forget your per (B major) fect offering (G flat major)
There is a (D flat major) crack, a (B major) crack in every (G flat major) thing
That's how the light (E flat minor7) gets in
(A flat7sus4) (A flat7) (A flat7)
Ring the bells (G flat major) that (B major) still can ring (G flat major)
Forget your per (B major) fect offering (G flat major)
There is a (D flat major) crack, a (B major) crack in every (G flat major) thing
That's how the light (E flat minor7) gets in
That's how the light (A flat7sus4) gets in
That's how the light (A flat7) gets in
