[Verse 1]
C/G                                      Fmaj7/C
Remember when our songs were just like prayers

      C/G   Gadd11          Am7          Fmaj7/C
Like gospel hymns that you called in the air

C/G                               Fmaj7/C
Come down come down sweet reverence,

C/G     Gadd11  Am7      Fmaj7/C      Fmaj7/C
unto my simple house and ring... and ring
[Chorus]
Fmaj7/C            C/G      Fmaj7/C
Ring like silver, ring like gold

C/G            Gadd11     Am7  Fmaj7/C
Ring out those ghosts on the Ohio

Fmaj7/C              C/G     Fmaj7/C
Ring like clear day wedding bells

             C/G         Gadd11        Am7       Fmaj7/C             Fmaj7/C
Were we the belly of the beast or the sword that fell... we'll never tell
[Bridge]
Em                  Fmaj7/C          C/G
  Come to me clear and cold on that sea

Em                         Fmaj7/C                C/G
  Watch the world spinning waves... like that machine
[Verse 2]
    C/G                             Fmaj7/C
Now I've been crazy, couldn't you tell?

          C/G         Gadd11          Am7      Fmaj7/C
I threw stones at the stars, but the whole sky fell

          C/G                                Fmaj7/C
Now I'm covered up in straw, belly up on the table

          C/G     Gadd11      Am7           Fmaj7/C
Well and drank and sang, and passed in the stable
[Verse 3]
C/G                              Fmaj7/C
That tall grass grows high and brown

          C/G        Gadd11         Am7    Fmaj7/C
Well, I dragged you straight in the muddy ground

        C/G                    Fmaj7/C
and you sent me back to where I roam

          C/G        Gadd11     Am7    Fmaj7/C
Well, I cursed and I cried, but now I know... now I know
[Verse 4]
       Am              Gadd11  Fmaj7/C
And I ran back to that hollow again

    C/G     Gadd11   Am7        Fmaj7/C
The moon was just a sliver back then

       Am                    Gadd11    Fmaj7/C
And I ached for my heart like some tin man

        C/G         Gadd11         Am7            Fmaj7/C
When it came, oh, it beat and it boiled and it rang... oh, it's ringing
[Chorus]
Fmaj7/C           C/G     Fmaj7/C
Ring like crazy, ring like hell

        C/G  Gadd11    Am7          Fmaj7/C
Turn me back into that wild haired gale

Fmaj7/C             C/G    Fmaj7/C
Ring like silver, ring like gold

             C/G      Gadd11      Am7   Fmaj7/C
Turn these diamonds straight back into coal

             C/G      Gadd11      Am7   Fmaj7/C
Turn these diamonds straight back into coal

             C/G      Gadd11  Am7
Turn these diamonds straight back
