Chimes Of Freedom chords
The Byrds 1965 (Bob Dylan)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chimes_of_Freedom_(song)
G C G D C G D G C G
G C G C
Far between sundown's finish and midnight's broken toll
G C D G C G
We ducked inside the doorway, thunder crashing
G C G C
As majestic bells of bolts, struck shadows in the sounds
G C D G C G
Seeming to be the chimes of freedom flashing
D D7 G C G
Flashing for the warriors, whose strength is not to fight
C Am D
Flashing for the refugees on the unarmed road of flight
G C G C
And for each and every underdog, soldier in the night
G C D G C G
And we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing
G C G C
Even though a clouds white curtain in a far off corner flashed
G C D G C G
And the hypnotic splattered mist was slowly lifting
G C G C
Electric lights still struck like arrows, fired but for the ones
G C D G C G
Condemned to drift or else be kept from drifting
D D7 G C G
Tolling for the searching ones, on their speechless seeking trail,
C Am D
For the lonesome hearted lovers, with too personal a tale
G G C
And for each unharmful gentle soul misplaced inside a jail
G C D G C G
And we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing
G C G C
Starry eyed and laughing, as I recall when we were caught
G C D G C G
Trapped by no track of hours for they hanged suspended
G C G C
And we listened one last time, and we watched with one last look
G C D G C G
Spellbound and swallowed till the tolling ended
D D7 G C G
Tolling for the aching ones whose wounds cannot be nursed
C Am D
For the countless confused, accused, misused, strung-out ones and worse
G C G C
And for every hung-up person in the whole wide universe
G C D G C G
And we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing
C Em D
Di di di di di di di di di di di di
C Em D G C G
Di di di di di di di di di di di dum

Good tab, thx.
I play it with a full G (add D on B string) and easy change to Cadd9.
Intro: G C C/B D Dsus4 C G D G C G
In chorus, at second 'Flashing' change G to C.
Try it.
