It was Sunday morning in our town  
      C         F     C     F             C 
And I sat on my steps and I stared at the ground  
                    ~          Am       G 
And I bowed my head while they shuffled past  
        C            F      C      F       G 
All the saints being called to the morning mass  


 
               F        C     F      C 
And off in the distance there rang a bell  
               F        C     
Way off in the distance there rang a bell  
                           ~       Am         G 
And it rang for the saints and the sinners as well  
               F        C     
Way off in the distance there rang a bell

I remember the lessons of Sunday school  
      C              F      C     F       C 
And I can't help but think, maybe I'm the fool  
                  ~    Am      G 
But I see no sign of a greater plan 
         C           F      C     F      G 
Just the joy and the sorrow of my fellow man  



               F        C     F      C 
And off in the distance there rang a bell  
               F        C     
Way off in the distance there rang a bell  
                           ~       Am         G 
And it rang for the saints and the sinners as well  
               F        C     
Way off in the distance there rang a bell

Bridge: 
            F                       G 
And here we stand while life rushes past  
  C         F     C              G 
Between the first breath and the last  
    C       F                      C 
And here we stand between East and West 
            ~     Am                G 
And here we stand between birth and death

I was watching the news the other night  
            C          F           C     F          C 
There was a war on the Left, there was a war on the Right  
                     ~         Am    G 
And it's no surprise that it's us or them  
       C             F      C  F     G 
It's a long way from heaven to Bethlehem 



               F        C     F      C 
And off in the distance there rang a bell  
               F        C     
Way off in the distance there rang a bell  
                           ~       Am         G 
And it rang for the saints and the sinners as well  
               F        C     
Way off in the distance there rang a bell
