              F   C   F      G 
It was Sunday morning in our town  
      C         F     C     F             C 
And I sat on my steps and I stared at the ground  
                    ~          Am       G 
And I bowed my head while they shuffled past  
        C            F      C      F       G 
All the saints being called to the morning mass  


 
               F        C     F      C 
And off in the distance there rang a bell  
               F        C     
Way off in the distance there rang a bell  
                           ~       Am         G 
And it rang for the saints and the sinners as well  
               F        C     
Way off in the distance there rang a bell 


INTERLUDE: C  F  C  F  G    C  F  C  F  C 


               F       C  F      G 
I remember the lessons of Sunday school  
      C              F      C     F       C 
And I can't help but think, maybe I'm the fool  
                  ~    Am      G 
But I see no sign of a greater plan 
         C           F      C     F      G 
Just the joy and the sorrow of my fellow man  



               F        C     F      C 
And off in the distance there rang a bell  
               F        C     
Way off in the distance there rang a bell  
                           ~       Am         G 
And it rang for the saints and the sinners as well  
               F        C     
Way off in the distance there rang a bell
