Verse 1
C 					       Fmaj7Remember when our songs were just like prayers.
        C		Cadd2		Am	     Fmaj7Like gospel hymns that you called in the air.
C			      Fmaj7Come down come down sweet reverence,
    C	    Cadd2	      Am	             Fmaj7unto my simple house and ring...and ring.

Chorus
Fmaj7		  C	    Fmaj7Ring like silver, ring like gold
         C      	 Cadd2	         Am   Fmaj7Ring out those ghosts on the Ohio
Fmaj7		        C		Fmaj7Ring like clear day wedding bells
              C	        Cadd2		Am      Fmaj7           CWere we the belly of the beast or the sword that fell...we'll never tell.

Bridge
Em			Fmaj7		C	Fmaj7	    CCome to me clear and cold on some sea
Em			    Fmaj7	   C		GWatch the world spinning waves...like machines

Verse 2
Now I,ve been crazy couldn't you tell
I threw stones at the stars, but the whole sky fell
Now I'm covered up in straw, belly up on the table
Well and sang and drank, and passed in the stable.

Bridge Instrumental

Verse 3
That tall grass grows high and brown,
Well I dragged you straight in the muddy ground
and you sent me back to where I roam
Well I cursed and I cried, but now I know...now I know

Verse 4
and I ran back to that hollow again
The moon was just a sliver back then
and I ached for my hear like some tin man
When it came oh it beat and it boiled and it rang...it's ringing

Chorus
Ring like crazy, ring like hell
Turn me back into that wild haired gale
Ring like silver, ring like gold
Turn these diamonds straight back into coal.
