Capo 1 fret

[Verse 1]
       Bm          G
I have walked all alone
          D             Am
On these streets, I call home
            Bm               G
Streets of hope, streets of fear
              D        Am
Through the sidewalk cracks
        Bm      G
Time disappears
        Bm           G
I was lost, on my knees
       D          Am
On the eve of defeat
        Bm            G
As I choked back the tears
            D       Am
There's a silent scream no one could hear
G                   Am
So far away from everything, you know it's true
G                   Am
Something inside that makes you do
Am
What you've got to do
 
[Chorus]
           D                Am
Ring the bells, ring them loud
          Bm             G
Let them ring here and now
           D         Am               Bm    G
Just reach out and ring the bells of freedom
           D         Am                     Bm           G
When your world's crashing down like you've lost every round
           D
Stand your ground
      Am              Bm     G
And ring the bells of freedom
 
[Verse 2]
       Bm             G
Up the steps of the church
          D                Am
Through the fields in the dirt
       Bm             G
In the dark, I have seen
          D                Am
That the sun still shines for the one who believed
G
So far away
Am
So full of doubt, you needed proof
G                                                  Am
Just close your eyes and hear the sound inside of you
 
[Chorus]
           D         Am
Ring the bells, ring them loud
          Bm             G
Let them ring here and now
           D         Am               Bm    G
Just reach out and ring the bells of freedom
           D         Am                     Bm           G
When your world's crashing down like you've lost every round
           D
Stand your ground
      Am              Bm     G
And ring the bells of freedom
 
 [solo]
          D                Am
Ring the bells, ring them loud
          Bm             G
Let them ring here and now
           D         Am               Bm    G
Just reach out and ring the bells of freedom
 
[outro]
D Am Bm G
