Those Distant Bells

• Em

Intro: Em G D A 




Verse 1:
 
Em    G      
  The car crunches gravel 
D         A 
  And the wind licks at you 
Em     G 
  This dark spell you're under 
D         A 
  Has you dumbstruck by the gate 

Verse 2:
 
Em       G 
  And it hurts every muscle 
D         A   
  Just to walk back to the house 
Em         G 
  Now this home that you both made 
D          A 
  It looks haunted from the yard 

 
Em        G                  D 
  You can hear those distant bells 
        A                  Em 
And you know they'll never leave 
               G                D 
It's like your church is crying out 
         A                 Em 
Like the wolf calls to her young 

Verse 3:
 
          G 
  And the dark never enters 
D        A 
  But it also never leaves 
Em         G 
  And this spark that he gave you 
D            A 
  Is just an ember all but out 

Verse 4:
 
Em        G 
  If he'd one eye on the exit 
D        A 
  Oh you never would have known 
Em         G 
  Until he drove off in the darkness 
D           A 
  Like some slowly fading song 


Em        G                  D 
  You can hear those distant bells 
        A                  Em 
And you know they'll never leave 
               G                D 
It's like your church is crying out 
         A                 Em 
Like the wolf calls to her young 

        G                  D 
You can hear those distant bells 
        A                  Em 
And you know they'll never leave 
               G                D 
It's like your church is crying out 
         A                 Em 
Like the wolf calls to her young 


Repeat: Em G D A
