G C G C

Far between sundown s finish and midnight s broken toll

G C D G CG

We ducked inside the doorway, thunder crashing

G C G C

As majestic bells of bolts, struck shadows in the sounds

G C D G CG

Seeming to be the chimes of freedom flashing

D D7 G C

Flashing for the warriors, whose strength is not to fight

G C Am D

Flashing for the refugees on the unarmed road of flight

G C G C

And for each and every underdog, soldier in the night

G C D G CG

And we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing

G C G C

Even though a cloud s white curtain in a far off corner flashed

G C D G CG

And the hypnotic splattered mist was slowly lifting

G C G C

Electric lights still struck like arrows, fired but for the ones

G C D G CG

Condemned to drift or else be kept from drifting

D D7 G C

Tolling for the searching ones, on their speechless seeking trail,

G C Am D

For the lonesome hearted lovers, with too personal a tale

G C G C

And for each unharmful gentle soul misplaced inside a jail

G C D G CG

And we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing

G C G C

Starry eyed and laughing, as I recall when we were caught

G C D G CG

Trapped by no track of hours for they hanged suspended

G C G C

And we listened one last time, and we watched with one last look

G C D G CG

Spellbound and swallowed till the tolling ended
