[Verse 1]

Dm
The dancer slows her frantic pace, 
in pain and desperation,
F                                 
Her aching limbs and downcast face
  Bb
 aglow with perspiration
Dm
Stiff as wire, her lungs on fire, 
with just the briefest pause
F                               
The flooding through her memory,
Bb                              C
 The echoes of old applause.
She limps across the floor and 
F                  Dsus2
closes her bedroom door...

[Verse 2]

    Dm
The writer stares with glassy eyes, 
defies the empty page
Continúa después del anuncio
    F                          
His beard is white, his face is 
           Bb
lined and streaked with tears of 
rage.
       Dm
Thirty years ago, how the words 
would flow, with passion and 
precision,
    F                              
But now his mind is dark and dulled
    Bb                        C
 by sickness and indecision
And he stares out the kitchen door, 
          F                Dsus2
where the sun will rise no more...

D                C               
Some are born to move the world, 
   G
to live their fantasies
    D               C             
But most of us just dream about 
  G
the things we'd like to be
D#sus2          C#sus2            
Sadder still to watch it die than 
Bsus2         F#
never to have known it


[Chorus]

Bbsus2                 Csus2
For you, the blind who once could

Bbsus2      Csus2     Bbsus2     
   The bell tolls for thee...
