Through the (G major) city’s melted fur (C major) nace,
unex (G major) pectedly (C major) we watched (G major) (C major)
With (G major) faces (C major) hidden

As the (G major) echo of the wed (C major) ding bells
be (G major) fore the blowin’ (C major) rain (G major) (C major)

Through the (G major) mad mystic (C major) hammering
of the (G major) wild (C major) ripping (G major) hail (C major)
The (G major) sky (C major) cracked its (D major) poems
in naked won (G major) der (C major) (G major)
That the (G major) clinging of the church (C major) bells
blew (G major) far in (C major) to the breeze (G major) (C major)
Leaving (G major) only (C major) bells of (D major) lightning
and its thun (G major) der (C major) (G major)
Chorus 3
(D major) Striking for the the gentle,
(G major) striking for the kind
(C major) Striking for the guar (G major) dians
and protectors (A minor) of the (D major) mind

Verse 4
(G major) wild cathedral (C major) evening
the (G major) rain un (C major) raveled (G major) tales (C major)
For the (G major) disrobed (C major) faceless
forms (D major) of no po (G major) sition (C major) (G major) (D major)
(G major) Tolling for the tongues (C major)

(D major) Tolling for the deaf and blind,
(G major) tolling for the mute

For the (G major) misdemeanor out (D major) law,
chained and (G major) cheated by pur (C major) suit
And we (G major) gazed upon the (C major) chimes
of (D major) freedom flash (G major) ing (C major)

Verse 5
Even (G major) though a cloud’s white (C major) curtain
in a (G major) far-off (C major) corner flared (G major) (C major)
And the (G major) hypnotic (C major) splattered (D major) mist
was slowly lift (G major) ing (C major) (G major)
Electric (G major) light still struck like (C major) arrows,
(G major) fired but (C major) for the ones (G major) (C major)
Con (G major) demned to (C major) drift
or (D major) else be kept from (G major) drifting (C major) (G major)

(D major) Tolling for the searching ones,
on (G major) their speechless, seeking trail
For the (C major) lonesome-hearted lo (G major) vers
with too (A minor) personal a tale (D major)
And (G major) for each unharmful,
(D major) gentle soul mis (G major) placed inside a (C major) jail

Verse 6
(G major) Starry-eyed and (C major) laughing as I (G major) recall
when (C major) we were (G major) caught (C major)
(G major) Trapped by no (C major) track
of hours (D major) for they hanged sus (G major) pended (C major) (G major)
As we (G major) listened (G major) one last (C major) time an’ we (G major) watched
with (C major) one last look (G major) (C major)
(G major) Spellbound (C major) and (D major) swallowed
’til the tolling (G major) ended (C major) (G major)

For the (C major) countless confused,
(G major) accused, misused,
(A minor) strung-out ones and (D major) worse
And for (G major) every hung-up per (D major) son
in the whole (G major) wide universe (C major)
And we (G major) gazed upon the (C major) chimes
(G major) of (D major) freedom (G major) flashing
(G major) (C major) (D major) (G major)
