| [al:original singles a's & b's 1965 - 1971] | |
| [offset:-100] | |
| [00:15.07] | Far between sundown's finish an' midnight's broken toll |
| [00:22.54] | We ducked inside the doorway, thunder crashing |
| [00:29.79] | As majestic bells of bolts struck shadows in the sounds |
| [00:37.25] | Seeming to be the chimes of freedom flashing |
| [00:44.78] | Flashing for the warriors whose strength is not to fight |
| [00:52.26] | Flashing for the refugees on the unarmed road of flight |
| [00:59.58] | An' for each an' ev'ry underdog soldier in the night |
| [01:07.00][02:06.86][03:22.29] | An' we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing |
| [01:14.72] | Even though a cloud's white curtain in a far-off corner flared |
| [01:22.08] | An' the hypnotic splattered mist was slowly lifting |
| [01:29.74] | Electric light still struck like arrows, fired but for the ones |
| [01:37.29] | Condemned to drift or else be kept from drifting |
| [01:44.80] | Tolling for the searching ones, on their speechless, seeking trail |
| [01:52.14] | For the lonesome-hearted lovers with too personal a tale |
| [01:59.39] | An' for each unharmful, gentle soul misplaced inside a jail |
| [02:30.34] | Starry-eyed an' laughing as I recall when we were caught |
| [02:37.34] | Trapped by no track of hours for they hanged suspended |
| [02:44.93] | As we listened one last time an' we watched with one last look |
| [02:52.64] | Spellbound an' swallowed 'til the tolling ended |
| [03:00.14] | Tolling for the aching whose wounds cannot be nursed |
| [03:07.52] | For the countless confused, accused, misused, strung-out ones an' worse |
| [03:14.98] | An' for every hung-up person in the whole wide universe |
