Verse 1
D 
The Angelus bell was ringing
G 
D 
Tolling the hour of midday
G 
D 
Bm 
I hadn't heard it rung in years
Em 
Asus4 
But I knew what it was right away
D 
It was a frantic holiday
G 
Far too sure to stay
Bm 
Trying to see Italy on
Asus4 
limited     dollars
D 
G 
We misread a map for
some tourist trap
Bm 
Asus4 
Found us lost on a back
road somewhere
G 
D 
Coming to the end of the day,
tempers starting to fray
Em 
Asus4 
We chanced upon a little   pensione
G 
D 
On a hill by the sea,
with a village nearby
Em 
We  took a room for the
Asus4 
Em 
Asus4 
night
D 
He dined as the locals do
G 
Some kind of rabbit stew
Bm 
Accompanied by an
Asus4 
amazing Sangiovese
D 
Wound up in a bar
G 
Dancing till the early hours
Bm 
Asus4 
To  the songs of a gypsy accordionist
G 
It was after sunrise
D 
Em 
Before we closed our eyes
Just even a note for the woman
Asus4 
G 
not      to wake us
Fell asleep making love,
D 
Em 
our bodies all tangled up
Asus4 
And when we finally
Em 
Asus4 
woke
G 
Dsus4 
D 
The angelus bell was ringing
G 
D 
Tolling the hour of midday
G 
D 
Bm 
I hadn't heard it rung in years
Em 
Asus4 
But I knew what it was right away
G 
D 
The angelus bell was ringing
Em 
D 
Calling the village to pray
G 
Bm 
Though I left that stuff behind long ago
Em 
Asus4 
G 
I whispered an R .V. Hail Mary,
A 
full of grace
Asus4 
D 
F#m 
G 
The old words fell into place
And an ocean of memories
Asus4 
came     flooding in
D 
All the magic and mystery
G 
I once believed in
Asus4 
Though I can never go back     there again
Bm 
D 
G 
In that moment, it was beautiful
Bm 
A 
G 
In that moment, it was so beautiful
Bm 
For that moment,
A 
Em 
G 
it was so perfectly beautiful
Em
