CATHEDRAL BELLS 

G Am
G Am

                                  G
and that's when the shadow came 
                                  Am
and darkened your china face 
                                G
the dancers still shook and swayed 
                         Am
but i couldn't look away 
 
                                  G
they were all in their chemicals 
                                    Am
a hundred cars up an icy hill 
                                   G
and we were stood under them 
                          Am
grim and quietly grimacing 

                                              Bm
and you spoke with that voice i love 
                                       Am
and love awoke in my boiling blood 
                             Bm
where death sat a sec before 
                         Am
the road is lit and i'm going home

                     Bm
there'll be no caving in 
                            Am
no suicide note, no pills and gin 
                 Bm
i'll hear your voice again 
                       C
and it stirs me like a pealing bell 
                   Bm
echoed by everything, everywhere 
                     C
by every fraught fibre, and every cell 
hear em telling you: 

                G
you're not the only one 
         Cm
you're not the only one 
            G
you're not the only one 
           Cm
you're not the only one 
              Am
feeling this stuff 
                           G Am
you're one of us 

G Am
G Am

                        G
and that's when the shadow lifts 
                  Am
and the camera reveals her lips 
               G
and all the lava under your skin 
             Am
you gotta always remember it 

               Bm
and try not to talk at all 
                    Am
and say all of that common stuff 
                     Bm
no just let the lava come 
                     Am
and all the love you've been holding off 

             Bm
yeah that's when we're rising up 
             C
feel the elevator pull your guts 
D
each floor is like the medicine drops 
Em                          C
the only fear is the fear it'll stop 




           G
but it won't because 
         Cm
but it won't because 
          G
but it won't because 
         Cm
no it never stops
        Em 
no it never stops 
        Cm
but it won't because 
        Am
cause it's in your blood 
      G
you're one of us 

G Am

             G
yeah that's when we're rising up 
           Am
out of the ashes and plastic cups 
           G
arm in arm on a dirty rug 
           Am
where they're all dancing to jungle love 

           G
i don't care if a shadow comes 
           Am
and covers us like a shovel of rocks 
             G
the party's still going on 
            Am
and i heard cathedral bells
