[Intro]
Am Am/G
[Verse 1]
C
The birds they sangat the break of day
G Start again C C7 I heard them say E7 Don't dwell on what Am has passed away G Gsus4 G5 G7 G or what is yet to be. C The wars they will
be fought again
G The holy dove C be caught again E7 bought and sold Am and bought again G Gsus4 G5 G7 G the dove is never free.
[Chorus]
F Bb F Ring the bells that still can ring. Bb F Forget your perfect offering. C Bb F There is a crack, a crack, in everything. Dm G Gsus4 G That's how the light gets in.
[Verse 2]
C
We asked for signsthe signs were sent:
G the birth betrayed C7 the marriage spent E7 the widowhood Am of every government - G Gsus4 G5 G7 G signs for all to see. C Can't run no more C with the lawless crowd G while the killers in high places C say their prayers out loud. E7 But they've summoned up Am A thundercloud G Gsus4 G5 G7 G and they're going to hear from me.
[Chorus]
F Bb F Ring the bells that still can ring. Bb F Forget your perfect offering. C Bb F There is a crack, a crack, in everything. Dm G Gsus4 G That's how the light gets in.
[Verse 3]
C You can add up the parts C but you won't have the sum G You can strike up the march, C there is no drum E7 Every heart Am to love will come G Gsus4 G5 G7 G but like a refugee.
[Chorus]
F Bb F Ring the bells that still can ring. Bb F Forget your perfect offering. C Bb F There is a crack, a crack, in everything. Dm G Gsus4 G That's how the light gets in. F Bb F Ring the bells that still can ring. Bb F Forget your perfect offering. C Bb F There is a crack, a crack, in everything. Dm G Gsus4 G That's how the light gets in.
