[Intro] G D D G D D D G D [Verse]
D                                      G    
Remember when our songs were just like prayers.

     D      D              Bm            G    
Like gospel hymns that you called in the air.

D                          G    
Come down come down sweet reverence,

D       D       Bm       G    
unto my simple house and ring...and ring.
[Interlude] D G -x3- D D Bm G D G D [Chorus]
G                 D        G    
Ring like silver, ring like gold

      D        D             Bm     G    
Ring out those ghosts on the Ohio

G                     D           G    
Ring like clear day wedding bells

             D           D           Bm        G               
We’re we the belly of the beast or the sword that fell...we'll never tell.
[Interlude] D G D G D D G D D Bm D D D [Bridge]
Gbm                   G          D     G         D
Come to me clear and cold on some sea

Gbm                       G               D     A
Watch the world spinning waves...like machines
[Verse]
D                               G    
Now I,ve been crazy couldn't you tell

        D            D            Bm        G    
I threw stones at the stars, but the whole sky fell.

D                                           G    
Now I'm covered up in straw, belly up on the table

         D         D                Bm                  G    
Well and drank and sang, and passed in the stable.
[Interlude] D G D [Bridge] Gbm G D G D Gbm G D A [Intro] G D D G D D D G D [Verse]
D                              G    
That tall grass grows high and brown,

        D           D               Bm    G    
Well I dragged you straight in the muddy ground

D                               G    
and you sent me back to where I roam

        D           D          Bm    G        
Well I cursed and I cried, but now I know...now I know
[Interlude] D G D [Verse]
D                      D       G    
and I ran back to that hollow again

    D        D        Bm         G    
The moon was just as sliver back then

D                            D      G    
and I ached for my hear like some tin man

        D          D             Bm          G    
When it came oh it beat and it boiled and it rang...it's ringing
[Interlude] D G D [Chorus]
G                 D      G    
Ring like crazy, ring like hell

         D   D          Bm         G    
Turn me back into that wild haired gale

G                 D       G    
Ring like silver, ring like gold

              D     D           Bm  G    
Turn these diamonds straight back into coal.
[Outro] D G -x3- D D Bm G D G
