chimes of freedom (live)

Lyrics：Bob Dylan Music：Bob Dylan
Well, far between sundowns finish and midnights broken toll
We ducked inside the doorway, thunder crashin
As majestic bells of bolts struck shadows in the sun;
Sayin , it may be the chimes of freedom flashin
Flashin for the warriors whose strength is not to fight;
Flashin for the refugees on their unarmed road of flight.
And for each and every underdog soldier in the night
We gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashin
Well, in the citys melted furnace unexpectedly we watched
With faces hidden here while the walls were tightenin
As the echo of the wedding bells before the blowing rain ;
Dissolved into the wild bales of lightnin
Yeah, tollin for the rebel, yeah, tollin for the raked
Tollin for the luckless, the abandoned and forsaked.
Yeah, tollin for the outcasts burnin constantly at stakes
And we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashin
Oh yeah! (instrumental solo)
And then through a cloud-like curtain in a far off corner flashed
Theres a hypnotic, splattered mist was slowly liftin
Well, electric light still struck like arrows
Fired but for the ones condemned to drift or else be kept from driftin
Well, tollin for the searching ones on this speechless, secret trail
For the lonesome haunted lovers with too personal a tale.
And for each young heart for each channeled soul misplaced inside a jail
Yeah, we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashin
Well, starry eyed and laughin I recall when we were caught,
Trapped by no track of hours for they hanged suspended
As we listened one last time, and we watched with one last look
Spellbound and swallowed Has the tollin ended?
Yeah, tollin for the achin ones whose wounds cannot be nursed
For the countless, confused, accused, misused strung out ones at worst.
And for every hung out person in the whole wide universe
We gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashin
Uh uh uh... (to end)
