Chimes Of Freedom

Written by Bob Dylan

	  		Written by Bob Dylan. This is legend, 'Boss' Bruce Springsteen's version. 



G                     D           G                 C 

Well, far between sundown's finish and midnight's broken toll 
G                 C        D       G 

We ducked inside the doorway, thunder crashin' 
D            G              C 

As majestic bells of boats struck shadows in the sun; 
G             D          riff   G 

Sayin', it may be the chimes of freedom flashin' 




D                               G 
Flashin' for the warriors whose strength is not to fight; 
C   G               Am              D 
Flashin' for the refugees on their unarmed road of flight. 
G              D        G              C 

And for each and every underdog soldier in the night 
G              C         D       G         G C D G 

We gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashin' 



              D             G          C 
Well, in the city's melted furnace unexpectedly we watched 
 G           D      riff       G           D 

With faces hidden here while the walls were tightenin' 
G           D             G                  C 

As the echo of the wedding bells before the blowing rain; 
 G    D     riff   G 

Dissolved into the wild bales of lightnin' 




D                      G 

Yeah, tollin' for the rebel, yeah, tollin' for the raked 
C               G             Am            D 

Tollin' for the luckless, the abandoned and forsaked. 
G     D        G                     C 

Yeah, tollin' for the outcasts burnin' constantly at stakes 
G              C         D       G  
And we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashin' 

G 


Oh yeah! (instrumental solo) 



D             G          C 
And then through a cloud-like curtain in a far off corner flashed 
G           D      riff       G           D 

There's a hypnotic, splattered mist was slowly liftin' 
 G           D             G                  C 

Well, electric light still struck like arrows 
G    D        riff      G 
Fired but for the ones condemned to drift or else be kept from driftin' 



D                                                        G 
Well, tollin' for the searching ones on this speechless, secret trail 

C               G             Am            D 

For the lonesome haunted lovers with too personal a tale. 
G       D        G                     C 

And for each young heart for each channeled soul misplaced inside a jail 
 G              C         D       G         
riff G 

Yeah, we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashin' 



D             G          C 

Well, starry eyed and laughin' I recall when we were caught, 
G           D      riff       G           D 

Trapped by an old track of vows for the hands suspended 
C   G               Am              D 

As we listened one last time, and we watched with one last look 
G              D        G              C 

Spellbound and swallowed "Has the tollin' ended?" 



D                                                        G 

Yeah, tollin' for the achin' ones whose wounds cannot be nursed 
G       D        G                     C 

For the countless, confused, accused, misused strung out ones at worst. 
G              C         D       G         
riff G 

And for every hung out person in the whole wide universe 

We gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashin' 




Uh uh uh... (to end) 


Enjoy!
