C Ring it out, trim it out F C G (Riff) To drag me back down... , but I'm not coming home :::Verse::: Em Been out here for so long Em The road just stretches on C G Till I stop pretending C G Till I stop pretending Em But the world is an empty frame Em And now you are just a name C G I'll keep it that way C G It's staying that way :::Chorus::: C How could I turn around? B7 Face the sound of the bell that shines? C Ring it out, trim it out F C G To drag me back down... , but I'm not coming home :::Interlude::: G (Riff) I tried hard to be brave G Em I tried hard not to be afraid G But trying wasn't enough G (Riff) I tried hard to be brave G Em I tried hard not to be afraid G But trying wasn't enough :::Outro::: G I'm sorry, I'm sorry C Cmaj7 <-- Cmaj7 is optional Can you hear the bell? C Cmaj7 Can you hear the bell? G The bell, the bell C Cmaj7 Can you hear the bell? C Cmaj7 Can you hear the bell? G The bell, the bell C G From the rust that lies deep in it's throat C G I hear solemn monotone notes C G The danger, the absent floors C G C G D In the silence of night he lets me know C G (Riff) Em That I'm not coming home
