Intro:  Am  Cm  Am  Am  x2

VERSE 1

Am                             C
Who you led you to this hiding place
                                  Am
This lightning thread-spun silver tunnels
                        C
Red bells beckon you to ride
                          Am
hand print on the driver's side
Am
it looks a lot like engine oil 
    C
and tastes like being poor and small
    Am             C
and popsicles in summer


CHORUS:

Am       C
Deep red bells
Am                Am
Deep as I've been done
Am       C
Deep red bells
Am                Am
Deep as I've been done


VERSE 2
   Am                    C
It always has to come to this
                               Am
The red bells ring this tragic hour
                            C
We've lost sight of the overpass
                            Am
The daylight won't remember that
Am
The speckled fawns grazed 'round your bones
    C
Who took the time to fold you clothes 
    Am                       C
And shook the valley of the shadow


CHORUS:

Am       C
Deep red bells
Am                Am
Deep as I've been done
Am       C
Deep red bells
Am                Am
Deep as I've been done


BRIDGE:
F  Am   F  Am  F  Am7 (hold)

                                    Am7 (single strum)
Where does this mean world cast its cold eye?
Who's left to suffer long about you
          C
Does your soul cast about like an old paper bag
Past empty lots life and early graves
    C
But those like you who lost there way
Am
Murdered on the interstate 
F                             C
While the red bells rang like thunder


CHORUS:

Am       C
Oh, deep red bells
Am                Am
Oh, deep as I've been done
Am       C
Deep red bells
Am                Am
Deep as I've been done
