[Verse 1]
---------------------
D  D                                    G
 Remember when our songs were just like prayers
       D    A              Bm            G
Like gospel hymns that you caught in the air?
          D                         G
Come down, come down sweet reverence
  D     A        Bm     G
Unto my simple house and ring
        D
And ring

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
G                 D        G
Ring like silver, ring like gold
     D         A             Bm G
Ring out those ghosts on the Ohio
G                   D       G
Ring like clear day wedding bells
            D            A            Bm         G
Were we the belly of the beast or the sword that fell?
                D G
We'll never tell

[Interlude (2)]

D | G | D | A | G 
D | A | D | G | D 

[Bridge (1)]
---------------------
F#m                        G
  Come to me clear and cold
           D G
On some sea
D F#m                              G           D A
    Watch the world spinning waves, mad machine

[Verse 3]
---------------------
D                                G
Now I've been crazy couldn't you tell?
        D             A              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         A         Bm            G
Well, I drank and sang, and passed in the stable, hmm, hmm

[Verse 4]
---------------------
D                              G
That tall grass grows high and brown
       D           A               Bm    G
Well I dragged you straight in the muddy ground
        D                       G
And you sent me back to where I roam
        D            A          Bm    G
Well, I cursed and I cried, but now I know
          D   G
Oh, now I know

[Bridge (2)]
---------------------
D      Bm               A       G
 And I ran back to that hollow again
    D        A      Bm         G
The moon was just a sliver back then
      Bm                      A        G
And I ached for my heart like some tin man
        D           A           Bm            G
When it came, oh it beat and it boiled and it rang
                D G D
Oh, it's ringing

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
G                D        G
Ring like crazy, ring like hell
            D  A       Bm        G
Turn me back into that wildhaired gale
G                 D         G
Ring like silver, ring like gold
           D        A             Bm       G
Turn these diamonds straight back into coal
           D        A             Bm       G
Turn these diamonds straight back into coal
Hmm
