[Intro]
Am Gsus4 G
[Verse 1]
The birds Cthey sang
At the break of day
Start Gagain
I heard them Csay C7
Don't E7dwell on what
Has Ampassed away
Or what Gsus4is yet to be G Gsus4 G
[Verse 2]
Yeah the waCrs they will
Be fought again
The holy Gdove
She will be Ccaught again C7
BougE7ht and sold
And Ambought again
The dove is nGsus4ever free G Gsus4 G
[Chorus]
Ring the Fbells that sBbtill can Fring
Forget your Bbperfect Foffering
There is a Ccrack, a cBbrack in Feverything
That's how the lDmight gets in Gsus4 G Gsus4 G
[Verse 3]
We askeCd for signs
The signs were sent:
The birth Gbetrayed
The marriage Cspent C7
Yeah E7the widowhood
Of every Amgovernment
Signs for Gsus4all to see G Gsus4 G
[Verse 4]
I can'Ct run no more
With that lawless crowd
While the kilGlers in high places
Say their Cprayers out loud C7
But they've E7summoned, they've summoned up
A tAmhundercloud
And they're going to Gsus4hear from meG Gsus4 G
[Chorus]
Ring the Fbells that Bbstill Fring
Forget your Bbperfect Foffering
There is a Ccrack, a cBbrack in Feverything
That's how theDm light gets inGsus4 G Gsus4 G
[Verse 5]
You can adCd up the parts
You won't have the sum
You can Gstrike up the march
There is no Cdrum C7
Every E7heart, every heart
To Amlove will come
But like a Gsus4refugee G Gsus4 G
[Chorus]
Ring the Fbells that sBbtill can Fring
Forget your Bbperfect offFering
There is a Ccrack, a cBbrack in Feverything
That's how thDme light gets iGsus4n G Gsus4 G
Ring the Fbells that sBbtill can Fring
Forget your Bbperfect oFffering
There is aC crack, a Bbcrack inF everything
That's how theDm light gets in
That's how the Gsus4light gets in
That's how the Glight. geGsus4ts. in. G
