"Chimes of Freedom" by Bob Dylan
CAPO: None
[Intro]
G C D G G
[Verse 1]
Far beGtween sundown's Dfinish and Gmidnight's broken Ctoll
We Gducked inside the Cdoorway as Dthunder went Gcrashing
As maGjestic bells of Dbolts struck Gshadows in the Csounds
GSeeming to be the Dchimes of freedom Gflashing
DFlashing for the warriors whose Gstrength is not to fight
CFlashing for the Grefugees on the Amunarmed road of Dflight
And for Geach and every Dunderdog Gsoldier in the Cnight
And we Ggazed upon the Cchimes of Dfreedom Gflashing
[Verse 2]
GThrough the city's melted Dfurnace, unexpGectedly we Cwatched
With Gfaces hidden Das the walls were Gtightening D
As the Gecho of the Dwedding bells Gbefore the blowing Crain
GDissolved into the Dbells of the Glighting
DTolling for the rebel, Gtolling for the rake
CTolling for the Gluckless, the Amabandoned and Dforsaked
GTolling for the Doutcast burnin' Gconstantly at Cstake
And we Ggazed upon the Cchimes of Dfreedom Gflashing
[Verse 3]
GThrough the mad mystic Dhammering of the Gwild ripping Chail
The sGky cracked its pDoems in naked wondGer D
That the Gclinging of the Dchurch bells blew Gfar into the Cbreeze
GLeaving only bells of Dlightning and its Gthunder
D Striking for the gentle, Gstriking for the kind
CStriking for the Gguardians and Amprotectors of the Dmind
And the Gpoet and the Dpainter far beGhind his rightful Ctime
And we Ggazed upon the Cchimes of Dfreedom Gflashing
[Verse 4]
In the Gwild cathedral Devening the Grain unraveled Ctales
For the Gdisrobed faceless Dforms of no pGosition D
GTolling for the Dtongues with no Gplace to bring their Cthoughts
All Gdown in taken-for-gDranted Gsituations
DTolling for the deaf and blind, Gtolling for the mute
For the Cmistreated, mateless Gmother, the misAmtitled prostiDtute
For the Gmisdemeanor outDlaw, chained and Gcheated by purCsuit
And we Ggazed upon the Cchimes of Dfreedom Gflashing
[Verse 5]
Even Gthough a cloud's white Dcurtain in a Gfar-off corner Cflared
And the Ghypnotic splattered Dmist was slowly Glifting D
Electric Glight still struck like Darrows, Gfired but for the Cones
GCondemned to drift or Delse be kept from Gdrifting
DTolling for the searching ones, on their Gspeechless, seeking trail
For the Clonesome-hearted Glovers with too Ampersonal a Dtale
And for Geach unharmful, Dgentle soul misGplaced inside a Cjail
And we Ggazed upon the Cchimes of Dfreedom Gflashing
[Verse 6]
GStarry-eyed and Dlaughing, as I reGcall when we were Ccaught
GTrapped by no track of Dhours for they hanged susGpended D
As we Glistened one last Dtime and we Gwatched with one last Clook
GSpellbound and Dswallowed 'til the tolling Gended
DTolling for the aching, whose Gwounds cannot be nursed
For the Ccountless confused, Gaccused, misused, Amstrung-out ones and Dworse
And for Gevery hung-up Dperson in the Gwhole wide uniCverse
And we Ggazed upon the Cchimes of Dfreedom Gflashing
[Outro]
