[Intro]
Bm A
[Verse]
D
The birds they sang at the break of day
A D D7
Start again, I heard them say
F#7 Bm
Don't dwell on what has passed away
A Asus4 A5 A7 A
or what is yet to be.
D
The wars they will be fought again
A D D7
The holy dove be caught again
F#7 Bm
bought and sold and bought again
A Asus4 A5 A7 A
the dove is never free.
[Chorus]
G C G
Ring the bells that still can ring.
C G
Forget your perfect offering.
D C G
There is a crack, a crack, in everything.
Em A Asus4 A
That's how the light gets in.
[Verse 2]
D
We asked for signs the signs were sent:
A D D7
the birth betrayed the marriage spent
F#m Bm
the widowhood, of every government -
A Asus4 A5 A7 A
signs for all to see.
D
Can't run no more with the lawless crowd
A D D7
while the killers in high places say their prayers out loud.
F#m Bm
But they've summoned up a thundercloud
A Asus4 A5 A7 A
and they're going to hear from me.
[Chorus]
G C G
Ring the bells that still can ring.
C G
Forget your perfect offering.
D C G
There is a crack, a crack, in everything.
Em A Asus4 A
That's how the light gets in.

D
You can add up the parts but you won't have the sum
A D D7
You can strike up the march, there is no drum

Every heart to love will come
A Asus4 A5 A7 A
but like a refugee.
[Chorus]
G C G
Ring the bells that still can ring.
C G
Forget your perfect offering.
D C G
There is a crack, a crack, in everything.
Em A Asus4 A
That's how the light gets in.

There is a crack, a crack, in everything.

that's how the light gets in
Em A Asus4 A
that's how the light gets in
