--------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ring them Bells - Bob Dylan --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: maguri Tuning: Standard Bob Dylan Ring them Bells (1989) (Bob Dylan) From: "Oh Mercy" Following the main vocal line, Dylan plays a lot of changes on the piano on his recording that are hard to do on a guitar. I skipped most of them for this tab and stuck to the underlying chord (mostly C). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- CHORDS E-A-D-G-B-E F/A x-0-3-2-1-1 G/B x-2-0-0-3-3 F/G 3-x-3-2-1-1 Abaug 4-x-2-1-1-x C/G 3-x-2-0-1-0 [ch]D9/F#[/ch] 2-x-0-2-1-0 Fmaj7 (t)1-3-3-2-1-0 C/E 0(3)2-0-1-0 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Capo 1st fret | C | C G | Am | Am F/A G/B | C | % | C Ring them bells, ye heathen F/A C From the city that dreams C Ring them bells from the sanctuaries F/G ?Cross the valleys and streams F C For they?re deep and they?re wide C F And the world?s on its side C And time is running backwards F/G C And so is the bride | F/A F/A G/B | C | % | C Ring them bells St. Peter F/A C Where the four winds blow C Ring them bells with an iron hand F/G So the people will know F C Oh it?s rush hour now C F On the wheel and the plow C And the sun is going down F/G C Upon the sacred cow | F/A F/A G/B | C | % | C Ring them bells Sweet Martha F/G C For the poor man?s son C Ring them bells so the world will know G That God is one F C Oh the shepherd is asleep C F Where the willows weep C And the mountains are filled F/G C With lost sheep Am C Ring them bells for the blind and the deaf Am C Ring them bells for all of us who are left Am Abaug Ring them bells for the chosen few C/G [ch]D9/F#[/ch] Who will judge the many when the game is through F[maj7] C/E Ring them bells, for the time that flies Dm7 For the child that cries F/G When innocence dies C Ring them bells St. Catherine F/G C From the top of the room C Ring them from the fortress F/G For the lilies that bloom F C Oh the lines are long C F And the fighting is strong C And they?re breaking down the distance F/G C Between right and wrong OUTRO | G | F | G | F | | C | % | F/G C
